The Worli police on Saturday arrested the female friend of alleged extortionist Guru Siddappa Waghmare, 50, who was stabbed to death inside a spa at the behest of his rival. Cops said that the prime accused in the case had planted the woman, Mary Joseph, in Waghmare’s life six months ago to monitor his day-to-day activities. The police have also arrested Mary’s former boyfriend Shamshad alias Suraj.
In the wee hours of July 24, two killers entered Soft Touch Spa and stabbed Waghmare over 25 times leading to his death. Two days later, Crime Branch officials arrested the alleged murderers Firoz and Saqib Ansari from Nalasopara and Kota, Rajasthan respectively. The investigation revealed that the prime accused Santosh Sherekar, the owner of the spa, had given a supari to the duo and a payment of R6 lakh was made for the job. Crime Branch officials seized the two-wheeler on which Firoz and Saqib had travelled. Rs 4.5 lakh, scissors, a gold chain and clothes of the deceased were recovered by the Crime Branch, and the duo was handed over to the Worli police for further investigation.
