Vagabond stones rival to death at Nagpur railway station

NAGPUR: A vagabond, identified as Jeetendra, was killed by by his friend-turned-foe Dinsagar Sadaphule on platform number four of Nagpur railway station in the wee hours of Friday. Sadaphule, a native of Pune, stoned Jeetendra to death for abusing his family.

RPF Central Railway Nagpur division chief Ashutosh Pandey said that he would start regular action against vagabonds and beggars staying in and around Nagpur railway station immediately from Friday.
Jeetendra, a native of Chhattishgarh, would loiter, work as a labourrer and also sleep at Nagpur railway station or in the vicinity. Sources said Sadaphule and Jeetendra would regularly consume liquor together, and squabbling with each other was common between them.

Police said Sadaphule waited for Jeetendra to fall asleep and then killed him with a stone while the victim was asleep. Sadaphule was handed over to Government Railway Police (GRP). He was subsequently arrested for murder.
