Three people have been arrested in connection with a journalist’s murder in Gujarat’s Junagadh district.
Kishore Dave (53) was allegedly stabbed to death by some unidentified persons at the office of a Gujarati daily he was working with, at Vanjari chowk around 9:30 pm on Wednesday, Superintendent of Police Nilesh Jajadiya said.
Dave was the bureau chief of the newspaper which is published from Rajkot, he said. “He was stabbed six-seven times with knife. From injury marks, it appears that personal enmity could be a reason behind the murder,” Jajadiya said.
Dave’s body was sent for postmortem and police have launched a probe into the murder after registering a case against unidentified assailants at Junagadh B division police station.
