Industrialist Rana Suryavanshi was attacked a few days ago in the Baramati airport area. The incident had caused considerable commotion across the locality. Now, shocking information is emerging in the case.

According to sources, Suryavanshi himself gave the contract for the attack on himself. The contract is said to have been given for Rs 6 lakh. The development has heightened the stir around the case.

What was the reason?

Suryavanshi suffered an injury to his hand in the attack. Police then admitted him to Ruby Hospital in Pune for treatment. At the time it appeared to be an ordinary case of assault, but it has now taken a major turn.

Sources say Suryavanshi staged the entire attack on himself to obtain VIP security. That is, he had it arranged himself so that the attack would look real.

Sources have also said that the attackers were paid some money before the attack. The full amount of the contract is said to be Rs 6 lakh.

Two arrested

Police have arrested two men, Ninad Mahadik and Dnyaneshwar Salunkhe, in the case. It is expected that questioning them will yield more information about the attack.

Missing from hospital

After the attack, Suryavanshi was admitted to Ruby Hospital in Pune for treatment. He later absconded from there. Police began searching for him soon afterwards.

With new and startling details emerging, all eyes are now on the police's further investigation. Information obtained from the two arrested accused could determine the direction of the case.
