The Mumbai Police sought the custody of Sanjay Morey, from the court saying they need to probe if he had committed the act “deliberately” and used the BEST bus as a “weapon”.
It reminds us of the July 31, 2023 incidence in which Railway Police constable Chetan Singh on a Jaipur-Mumbai train on, without any reason or provocation opened fire on his senior, Tikaram Meena. After shooting him he killed Abdul Kadarbhai Mohammad Hussain Bhanpurwala, Syed Saifuddin, and Asgar Abbas Shaikh after searching them in different compartments.
After killing them he made a communally charged speech while standing next to the body.
After investigation the police said Chetan was mentally fit and he intentionally targeted the members of a particular community.
