Police have concluded their investigation into last year's alleged stone attack on NCP (SP) leader and former Maharashtra home minister Anil Deshmukh, filing an official 'B Summary' report in court. Officials confirmed that the case had been declared false based on forensic findings and inquiries.
Nagpur rural police submitted the report in Katol following a thorough examination that failed to substantiate claims in the original complaint filed by Deshmukh's personal assistant, Ujjwal Bhoyar. The complaint alleged stones were thrown at Deshmukh's vehicle, causing injuries, as he returned from an election rally.
Despite claims, forensic experts could not support the incident due to reinforced glass strength, discrepancies in the injury report, and lack of corroborative CCTV or eyewitness evidence. Consequently, police are now seeking permission to prosecute the complainant for filing false allegations.
