A quarry in Phule Nagar area of Bhiwandi town was recently the spot of a gruesome alleged murder. 28 year old Shivshankar S Bansode, along with some friends, had gone to the non operational quarry to fish in a pond. Surej Patil, relative of Dhiraj Patil, the owner, and two bodyguards mistook them for thieves and started flinging rocks at them. Bansode suffered serious head injuries and passed away.

Surej and the two bodyguards have been booked under a number of sections including murder and wrongful restraint. The case is being investigated further.
