The deceased, Kartik, was a resident of the Chinchpada area in Ulhasnagar. On June 27, Kartik was celebrating his birthday with friends, including Nilesh Kshirsagar, Sagar Kale, and Dheeraj Yadav. They organised the party at Nilesh Kshirsagar’s flat on the fourth floor of Arya Apartment in Chinchpada village. “They were all heavily intoxicated. Kartik insisted on drinking more, but his friends refused, telling him he was already out of control,” said Anil Padawal, senior police inspector at Vitthalwadi police station. “In the heat of the argument, Kartik broke a bottle on Nilesh’s head, leading to an altercation. The three friends, enraged, then pushed him out of the fourth-floor window, resulting in his death.”

The police reported that Nilesh was taken to the hospital for a head injury but they did not bother about Kartik’s condition. When they returned, they found Kartik dead in the building’s compound. “Initially, we filed an accidental death report. However, following a complaint from Kartik’s father, we registered a murder case. The father claims that the three friends pushed Kartik from the window. We are investigating to confirm the circumstances and verifying all allegations. The three friends have been arrested, and the investigation is ongoing,” added Padawal.
