Journalists in Mumbai held a protest at the Mahatma Gandhi statue near Mantralaya on Friday over the death of journalist Shashikant Warishe in a road accident in Rajapur.
Warishe was killed after an SUV hit his motorcycle on February 6. He died the next day in hospital. The protesting journalists claim that it was a murder and not an accident.
The SUV reportedly belonged to a local land dealer Pandarinath Amberkar, about whom Warishe had published a news report that same day detailing his criminal past. Amberkar has been arrested after the incident and produced in a court. The court has remanded him to police custody till February 14.
