Businessman Rana Suryavanshi leaves Pune hospital before police could question him in alleged attack case

Pune, October 26, 2026: Rana Suryavanshi, a businessman and owner of a shipping company, has left Ruby Hall Clinic in Pune. He is said to have left the hospital before police could question him. The case concerns an alleged attack on him near Baramati airport on October 18. His departure from the hospital has given the case a new turn.

Suryavanshi was admitted to hospital with serious injuries. He claimed that two unknown men attacked him. Police then arrested some suspects in connection with the attack. Police also began examining whether the incident was staged so that the businessman would receive more police protection.

Investigators suspect that Suryavanshi may have staged the attack. These allegations have not yet been officially established. Police had planned to question him as part of the investigation, but he is said to have left the hospital before this could happen. Police are now looking for him.

Police have also taken action against some of Suryavanshi's associates and others suspected of involvement in the alleged conspiracy.

Meanwhile, Director General of Police Sadanand Date had ordered an inquiry into the basis on which Suryavanshi was given police protection. Additional Director General of Police Nikhil Gupta has been given charge of that inquiry.

The latest development has added another layer to the investigation. Police now have two tasks. The first is to trace Suryavanshi. The second is to establish the circumstances of the alleged attack and of his leaving the hospital.
