A man who was arrested for allegedly issuing death threats to Swati Mohol, the wife of deceased gangster Sharad Mohol, has escaped from a hospital in Pune where he was taken for a medical check-up on Sunday, according to an official statement.


Marshal Louis Lilakar (24), the suspect, was caught by cyber police on Friday after allegedly sending threatening messages to Swati Mohol on social media using the nickname Munna Polekar, stated a PTI report. 


According to the report, after conducting an investigation, police detectives traced the texts back to Lilakar and detained him.


Lilakar complained of chest symptoms early Sunday morning, forcing the cyber police to transport him to Sassoon General Hospital for a medical evaluation at about 8 am. He was able to flee from the hospital's outpatient area, nevertheless, reported news agency PTI. 

Reportedly, efforts are underway to find and apprehend the escaped culprit, with various teams dispatched. A case has been filed against him at the Bundgarden police station.

As the inquiry progresses, more information about the situation is expected, the report added. 

A case was filed against two individuals in Navi Mumbai, Maharashtra, for allegedly causing a businessman to lose Rs 28.53 lakh in a light diesel oil supply fraud, according to police sources on Sunday, a report in PTI stated. 

According to a police complaint submitted by the 31-year-old businessman, during a time of non-production at his chemical company in Taloja, a former employee and a vendor collaborated to obtain light diesel oil for the company without the required licence, the report added. 

The oil obtained through this unauthorised method was later sold, resulting in considerable financial benefits for the accused and a loss of Rs 28,53,076 to the businessman's Nashik-based organisation, according to a Taloja police official.

The alleged fraudulent activities took place between March 2022 and September 2023, according to the businessman, the PTI report added. 

According to the report, on Saturday, officials filed a case against the former employee and the vendor under sections 420 (cheating) and 406 (criminal breach of trust) of the Indian Penal Code and contacted the police, citing the complaint.
