Vadodara: Notorious criminal takes out rally to celebrate his bail in murder case, booked by cops

VADODARA: He recently got bail in a murder case that was registered against him in February this year. But notorious criminal, Suraj Kahar alias Sui is in trouble again after the detection of crime branch (DCB) filed a complaint against him and nine others on Monday for taking out a rally and flouting police notification under section 144. Kahar along with all others are on the run and believed to have fled from the city a couple of days ago.
According to the police, Kahar was released on bail by a local court on June 4. His friends arrived at the jail in a luxurious red car to take him home. Kahar boarded the car and stood through the sunroof while heading towards his home on Warasia Road. His friends drove two-wheelers around the car and honked incessantly, as if celebrating his release from the jail.
After reaching his locality, one of his friends carried him home on his shoulders amid loud cheers by others. It was an embarrassing moment for the cops who learnt about the rally after three videos went viral on the social media, including a TikTok one a couple of days ago. One of the videos showing Kahar walking out of the jail even has a dialogue of Sanjay Dutt-starrer movie Vaastav in which the actor played a gangster’s role.
“We booked him for flouting police notification and taking out rally without any police permission. We have been searching for him and his friends but they all have gone missing. We will arrest them soon,” said Jaydeepsinh Jadeja, DCP (crime).
Kahar was arrested by the Panigate police for murder in February this year after he and his friends thrashed Keval Jadav, who was riding his bike, for overtaking his car on Waghodia Road. Kahar and four others beat up Jadav, an HR executive, so badly that he died of internal injuries.
Kahar is a history-sheeter and has nearly a dozen cases registered against him including assault, criminal conspiracy, attempt to murder threatening and under the Prohibition Act.
