A 33-year-old man was found dead with a bullet in his chest on late Monday night at MHADA Narmada’s co-operative society at Oshiwara. Police suspect that the man was in addiction to drugs and due to his bad habits his father killed him. Oshiwara police arrested the man’s father, Shrinivas Ganji, under CrPC section 302 and IPC section 201 of the Arms Act after interrogating him. Police say that the gun was bought by the father illegally. The deceased identified as Vicky Ganji was earlier working in a PR firm as a business head but from the last six months, he was unemployed.
