A dramatic twist unfolded in Gandhinagar&rsquo;s Adalaj canal murder case when the prime accused, Vipul Parmar, was killed in police firing at the very spot where he had allegedly committed the crime.
Police had taken Parmar to the canal site to reconstruct the sequence of events and gather more evidence in the murder probe. But what began as a routine procedure quickly turned into chaos. According to officials, Parmar suddenly tried to escape and, in the process, snatched a service weapon from a constable. Shockingly, he managed to open fire on the officer, leaving him injured.
The unexpected attack created panic among the police team. In retaliation, other personnel fired back at Parmar, hitting him with multiple rounds. Gravely wounded, he collapsed at the scene and died on the spot. The injured constable was rushed to Gandhinagar Civil Hospital for emergency treatment.
The incident has highlighted the unpredictable threat posed even by suspects in custody. Parmar&rsquo;s attempt to break free turned fatal and served as a stark reminder of the risks law enforcement faces during sensitive operations such as crime reconstructions.
Authorities say the case underscores the need for maximum precaution during such high-risk procedures, where one slip can end in tragedy.
