Just as he had warned earlier, senior public prosecutor Pradeep Gharat skipped the hearing of slain cop Ashwini Gore-Bidre’s case over outstanding dues on Friday. According to advocate Gharat there is a high inconsistency in the payment from Navi Mumbai police in the case, and approximately R20 lakh has been pending for past 2.5 years. According to police sources, after Gharat skipped the hearing, the cops got in touch with him over his demands.
Ashwini Gore-Bidre, an assistant police inspector, a resident of Navi Mumbai was allegedly killed by Senior Police Inspector Abhay Kurundkar and his three associates on April 11, 2016. The trial of the offence is on at Panvel Sessions Court. Charges have been framed against all the accused. Senior Counselor Pradeep Gharat was appointed as special public prosecutor in May 2019 after the family requested the government for his appointment.
