Dharwad, October 27: The police have been trying to establish contact with the relatives of 76-year-old person who was stranded like an orphan on Pune-Bengaluru national highway on the outskirts of the city on Saturday.
Locals have seen that a youth who came in a car left the aged person near Garag cross and went away. They thought that someone has dropped the aged person. When the aged person did not know where to go, local people asked him and shocked to hear the answer from him. They came to know that it was his son who left him on the road. Suddenly, the locals informed the police and admitted him to a hospital. The doctors who treated him said the person is suffering from amnesia.
"My name is Vincent Christine. I was a mechanic. I was living with my son at Mathikere in Bengaluru. I want to go home. Please send me to my son's home or nearby church. I don't have money to purchase medicines. Please give me any job so that I could earn money and purchase medicines", he said.

Karwar: Uttara Kannada police have cracked a murder case in which a Belagavi youth was killed and his body burnt inside a car to make it appear like a road accident.
Addressing a press meet in the city, Superintendent of Police Deepan M.N. said three accused from Old Hubballi have been arrested in connection with the case. The crime was a pre-planned act driven by personal enmity, he said.
The case came to light on April 8 morning when a car (KA-04/MJ-8996) was found completely burnt in a roadside ditch near Talekumbri bus stand in Yellapur. Only charred human remains were found inside the vehicle. Initially, it was suspected to be an accident caused by overspeeding, and a case was registered at Yellapur police station based on a complaint filed by the deceased’s father, Jagannath Dhapale.
However, the father later expressed suspicion that his son’s death was not accidental, prompting a detailed investigation.
Taking the matter seriously, two special teams were formed under the leadership of Yellapur Inspector Ramesh Hanapur. On analysing technical evidence and CCTV footage, police found that it was a planned murder.
The accused have been identified as Abdul Raheem Basheer Ahmed Mujawar (32), Maulasab Bavahan Wada (36) and Dadapeer alias Aftab Mehboob Saab Balasangi (22), all chicken traders from Old Hubballi.
Police have seized the car used in the crime along with two scooters. The accused have been remanded to judicial custody.
Investigations revealed that the accused killed Nitesh Dhapale due to personal enmity and later set the car on fire along with the body to project it as an accident.
SP Deepan M.N. appreciated the efforts of Inspector Ramesh Hanapur, PSIs Rajashekhar Vandali and Siddappa Gudi, and the entire team for solving the complex case.
