According to police officials, a murder case was registered on June 16 at the Ambegaon police station, prompting an immediate investigation. Using technical surveillance and intelligence inputs, the police were able to trace the suspect’s location to Madhya Pradesh.

The accused has been identified as Suraj Suryawanshi, 22, a resident of Ganesh Peth, Pune, who also worked as a delivery executive with the same e-commerce platform.

Commenting on the issue, API Priyanka Gore said, “The accused and the deceased were known to each other. The conflict began when the accused created a fake social media account using the name of one of his friends’ sisters, which led to disputes between them. This ultimately resulted in the murder.”

Gore added that after analysing technical data, the police tracked the suspect to Indore, where he was arrested within 24 hours of the crime.
