Navi Mumbai Crime Branch Cracks the Murder Case
The Navi Mumbai Crime Branch’s Unit I has discovered a murder case in which neither the accused nor the dead have any leads. Only when the post mortem report indicated that stabbing was the cause of death—originally reported as an accidental death—was the case changed to one of murder.
August 5: A 25-year-old guy was discovered dead on the Thane Belapur Road walkway. It was eventually determined that the robbery was carried out with the goal of robbing a 23-year-old. Sushil Kumar Ramsajivan Vind, 25, was recognized as the dead, while Sameer Amjeet Shaikh, 23, was identified as the accused.
The control room (112) and the ambulance (108) were contacted by a grocery delivery guy at around 2.48 am on August 5 to report that a man seemed to be wounded and had reported being robbed on Thane Belapur Road, close to Ghansoli Railway Station. “When Vind was initially discovered, he was on the center of the road. The food delivery guy noticed him and said, ‘Mujhe loota hai.’ The kid then asked for assistance from other bystanders and managed to get Vind to a covered walkway. A senior police officer from Unit I, Crime Branch, Abasaheb Patil stated, “One of the other people who helped was the grocery-app-delivery boy who then informed the police and the ambulance.” Police from Rabale MIDC have been notified of the matter.
When the police patrol team and ambulances arrived at the scene, they continued searching for Vind. They didn’t find him until 7.30 am on the sidewalk, at which point the hospital admitted him as dead. That day, it was pouring with rain. It was difficult to see. The dead also informed the individuals who spotted him on the road that he was robbed, not stabbed, so it’s likely that they were unaware that he was hurt and bleeding. Deepak Sakore, the Additional Commissioner of Navi Mumbai, stated, “He could have been saved by admitting him to hospital at the right time if after informing police one of them stayed there till we reached.”
The brother informed the police that Vind had previously lived in Kalwa and made a living by selling vegetables. However, he had left for his wedding in his birthplace of Pratapgarh, Uttar Pradesh, last year, and had just returned on August 1 to begin a new life here following his divorce. On August 4, Vind, who was living with his cousin in Mulund, left the house claiming to be heading to Kalwa to get his phone fixed. According to the CCTV footage, early on August 5, Vind was observed strolling by himself in the Ghansoli neighborhood.
The man may have come to Ghansoli to sell vegetables at the APMC market, however this is yet unknown. He took out loans of Rs. 700 and Rs. 500 from acquaintances, leaving him with Rs. 1200. The corpse was found 200 meters from the scene by the police.
Navi Mumbai Civic Body Bridges the Healthcare Gap with Free Screenings and Follow-up Care Across Local Centers.
The Drive
In a major boost to public health, 1,292 citizens were screened during a free cancer detection drive conducted across various health centers by the Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation (NMMC).
The initiative focused on early detection for common cancers including oral, breast, and cervical cancers giving local residents access to crucial preventive care close to home. Medical teams set up diagnostic stations at Urban Primary Health Centers (UPHCs) to ensure seamless access, particularly for working-class and middle-income families.
Beyond basic checkups, civic health teams provided guidance on early warning signs, lifestyle risks, and the importance of routine health monitoring. Citizens identified with potential symptoms received direct referrals to municipal hospitals for further testing and subsidized follow-up treatment.
Community health drives play an essential role in saving lives by catching illnesses before they progress. By making preventive care accessible to all, NMMC continues to strengthen healthcare infrastructure across the city.

Celebrating Tradition
Highlighting the rich cultural fabric of the region, women across Nerul gathered at the Shri Vitthal Rukmini Temple in Kukshet Village to celebrate Nag Panchami.

The temple courtyard transformed into a vibrant hub of Maharashtrian heritage as over 100 local women participated in age-old folk traditions that are increasingly rare in modern urban life. Attendees filled the air with traditional Nag Panchami and Mangalagaur songs while joining hands for lively rounds of Zimma and Phugdi. The day featured classic games including Kombda, Katwatkhana, blowing into copper pots (Kalshi Phunkne), and dancing with decorated earthen pots.
Beyond the cultural performances, the gathering highlighted strong neighborhood ties. Local residents expressed deep appreciation for the safe, supportive environment fostered in the area, noting that community initiatives like these strengthen mutual trust and preserve local culture for younger generations. With smiling faces, traditional rhythms, and shared prayers for prosperity, this year’s Nag Panchami reaffirmed the power of community traditions in keeping local heritage vibrant and strong.

The Hospital
Access to quality healthcare just got a major boost for local families. Meta Multispeciality Hospital officially opened its doors in Ghansoli Sector 4, promising state-of-the-art medical technology alongside a deeply human approach to community care.
The facility was inaugurated by Forest Minister and Palghar Guardian Minister Ganesh Naik, who toured the premises to inspect its emergency wards, OPD facilities, and advanced diagnostic machinery. Speaking to attendees, Naik praised the hospital’s leadership for prioritizing affordable, high-quality treatment for middle-class households.
What sets the hospital apart, however, is its landmark social welfare initiative announced during the opening by community leader Sagar Chougule and hospital administrator Dr. Swarna Shelke:
- Free Maternity Care for Girl Child Deliveries: To celebrate and encourage the birth of female children, the hospital will waive all delivery charges for mothers giving birth to baby girls.
- Free OPD Services for Seniors: Outpatient consultations will be entirely free for senior citizens aged 65 and above.
“Healthcare shouldn’t feel like an unbearable financial burden,” said Dr. Shelke. “Our primary goal is to bring modern medical infrastructure within reach of every everyday citizen.”
With monsoon-related illnesses on the rise, the team also plans to host free community health camps to catch seasonal infections early. By blending modern medicine with genuine community compassion, the new hospital aims to build a healthier, safer Navi Mumbai.
