Maharashtra: Dr Death congratulates his catchers
Pune: The police in Satara district of Maharashtra were in for a surprise when they received a congratulatory note on cracking a serial killing case -- from the alleged killer himself.
Doctor Santosh Pol, arrested for murdering at least six persons between 2003 and 2016, sent a hand-written note addressed to Superintendent of Police Sandip Patil. Pol, whose academic qualification is dubious but worked as a doctor, hailed Patil for catching him and said, "If you ask me why I am doing all this, then the question should be asked to the corrupt officials from the (police) department and the dormant society between 2003 and 2016." It was a police inspector from the local crime branch and the in-charge officer of Wai police station who cracked the case last month, Pol claimed. Patil told PTI that Pol apparently wanted to say that the murders remained unsolved until now because the concerned officers during this period were corrupt.
