Diabolic triple murder at Saibaba Temple in Mumbai unearthed

Mumbai, Dec 28 : The Mumbai Police have cracked a shocking triple murder case that took place under the cover of a major fire engulfing a Saibaba Temple in suburban Kandivali west early on Sunday morning.
Two persons — a minor boy and a 20-year-old youth — have been arrested for the crime, a top official said here on Monday.
Police said earlier it had considered the death of three persons – Mahesh R. Gupta, 24, Yuvraj V. Pawar, 28, Subhash A. Khode, 29 – in the fire an “accidental death”.
“The victims were sleeping in the Sai Sadichha Temple premises when a fire, due to a suspected short circuit, broke out around 4 a.m. on Sunday… they were charred to death,” said Additional Commissioner of Police, North Region, Dilip Sawant.
As per initial indications, the blaze was probably due to a short-circuit followed by a blast in an air-cooler or a water-cooler gas cylinder and an accident death report was registered, he added.
However, based on some reliable tips from local informers and even a preliminary probe by the Fire Department, the Charkop police swung into action and cracked what turned to be a daring case of triple murder inside the temple premises.
