Ahmedabad Crime Branch on Sunday arrested Dineshbhai Amthabhai Arjanbhai Desai, 54, who had been absconding for 24 years in a 2002 murder case registered at Sadri police station in Rajasthan's Pali district, police said. Desai was handed over to Rajasthan police the same day.
Desai and associates allegedly conspired to kill Delaram Nai over a property dispute, ramming an SUV into his motorcycle and making it appear an accident. He hid in Gujarat, shifting between Kankrej, Santej and Ahmedabad's Vejalpur, working as a daily-wage labourer and broker. Police said they tracked him using technical surveillance and intelligence. The murder case was registered under IPC sections 302, 120-B and 308.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The Hindustan Times version gives a fuller account of the 2002 murder, including the conspiracy, the staged accident, and the accused's movements, while NDTV is far shorter, stating the basic facts without the crime details. The arrest itself is the lead for both, so the coverage is neutral-report. The difference is only in depth, not bias. The absence of any critical or pro-government framing suggests the story is a routine police action. The handover to Rajasthan police is the concrete next step, which both reports confirm was completed on Sunday.
