A wedding in Amravati turned into a crime scene on 10th
November 2025 when the groom was stabbed. A drone positioned to film the
function captured the attack, but it also tracked the accused and his
accomplice for almost two kilometres.
The incident occurred around 9:30 p.m. at Sahil Lawn on
Badnera Road, during the wedding ceremony of 22-year-old Sujal Ram Samudra. The
suspect, identified as Ragho Jitendra Bakshi, approached the groom on stage and
stabbed him three times with a knife, injuring him on the thigh and knee.
Cameraman Follows Attacker with Drone Camera
The Drone became evidence in a violent crime. The incident
was captured by a drone camera, which has now become crucial evidence.
As stated by eyewitnesses, as panic erupted among guests, the
drone operator kept recording and even followed the attacker, capturing his
movements for about two kilometres before losing sight of him. Police have
since seized the footage, which shows the accused’s face and escape route.
Officials have called it key evidence.
The attacker, who was wearing an orange hoodie, ran off the
lawn, took a bike parked outside and escaped. One more person, wearing a black
outfit, joined him as they got on the bike. Both fled while one of the couple's
relatives tried to catch them. The drone followed the two attackers for two
kilometres, visible in the video.
Altercation During DJ Performance Triggered Attack
Initial investigation suggested the attack stemmed from a
minor dispute during a DJ performance, where the groom and the suspect were
pushed while dancing. The argument angered Bakshi, who attacked him violently.
Following the stabbing, the accused also attempted to attack the groom’s father
before fleeing.
Following swift action, a case was registered at Badnera
Police Station. SHO Sandeep Hiwale carried out the investigation.
The police used the drone footage to trace the suspect and
have launched a manhunt. “The accused is escaping, but with the visual
evidence, his arrest is imminent,” officers said. The injured groom was admitted
to RIMS Hospital, Amravati, after suffering deep wounds, but was stable.
