In a significant breakthrough in the Santosh Deshmukh murder case, the police have arrested two absconding accused, Sudarshan Ghule and Sudhir Sangale, in Pune. This development comes after the alleged mastermind, Valmik Karad, surrendered to the police.

The police had been searching for the three accused, including Krishna Andhale, who is still at large. The arrests were made possible after Karad provided crucial information during his interrogation.

The Santosh Deshmukh murder case had sparked widespread outrage in Beed district and beyond. The villagers of Massajog had staged a jal samadhi agitation demanding the arrest of the accused, and had given the police administration an ultimatum of 15 days.

The police have acted swiftly, arresting two of the accused within a week. The investigation is ongoing, and the police are likely to reveal more information soon. The villagers are demanding stringent punishment for the accused.

In a related development, a silent morcha was organized in Beed to condemn the incident, which was attended by thousands of citizens. The police superintendent is expected to address a press conference soon to provide more details about the case.
