Mumbai: Popat Shinde,
the main accused in the burning of Nashik district's additional
collector Yashwant Sonawane in Malegaon, succumbed to his burns at
the J.J. Hospital here Monday afternoon, said a senior hospital
official.
"Shinde was declared dead at 1.10 p.m. after he succumbed to more
than 70 percent burns," dean of the hospital T.P. Lahane said.
Shinde was the main accused in the killing of 44-year-old Sonawane,
who was set on fire by the oil mafia near Manmad last week
Tuesday.
Shinde was allegedly amongst those who poured kerosene over
Sonawane when he tried to take photographs of kerosene being
stolen from an oil tanker.
Sonawane reportedly grabbed Shinde during the attack, causing the
burns.
