Calangute: The law and order situation in the coastal State of Goa has deteriorated further, with yet another shocking incident coming to light. The postmortem on Harish Tanvar, 20, resident of Bhajaya Vihar Rani Kera, Delhi, who was found dead on Baga beach, has confirmed that he was brutally murdered.
It may be recalled that Tanvar was found dead on the Baga beach around 200 metres away from Tito's Lane at around 1 am on Saturday. His body was later sent to the Goa Medical College for postmortem examination where it was revealed that Tanvar has multiple stab injuries all over his body and he bled to death.
Police later scanned the area and rounded up three suspects who confessed that they had brutally stabbed Tanvar with a knife and fled with his belongings.
The accused Sahil, a native of Uttarakhand presently residing at Maddawado Calangute, Noor from Uttar Pradesh and resident of Parra and Sunil from Nepal were later arrested by the police and have allegedly confessed to the crime.
Sources revealed that the three were touts and were residing in Goa for the last 20 years, could speak fluent Konkani and eked out a living by committing petty crimes and selling ‘Golmaal’ a concocted version of home-made ganja made from tobacco and urea and would spend their nights at the Tinto at Calangute. They would basically sell the drugs to tourists at cheap rates.
“On the fateful day, the trio was in drunken stupor, noticed Tanvar on the beach and tried to sell him ‘Golmaal’. When he refused to buy the spurious stuff, they tried to rob him to which he resisted and fought back. The trio then knocked him down, while one of the accused pinned him down, the two others mercilessly stabbed Tanvar with a knife,” said a police officer.
“The trio then fled with Tanvar’s bag, mobile and Rs 5,000 leaving the injured youth who bled to his death on a rainy night on the beach,” said a cop.
The body was spotted floating in the water close to the beach on Saturday by lifeguards who retrieved it and informed the police. The Calangute Police on Monday registered a murder case against the trio after receiving the postmortem report.
