Murdered Amravati Chemist Shared Post On Nupur Sharma By Mistake: Cops

Murdered Amravati Chemist Shared Post On Nupur Sharma By Mistake: Cops

The murder was chillingly similar to the one in Rajasthan's Udaipur this week when a tailor Kanhaiya Lal was brutally attacked by two men who tried to behead him because he shared a post online in support of Nupur Sharma.

Umesh Kolhe, the 54-year-old chemist in Maharashtra's Amravati who was murdered by two men last month, had inadvertently shared a message defending former BJP spokesperson Nupur Sharma's comment about Prophet Muhammad on a public WhatsApp group angering his killers, the police have said.

The case was transferred to the National Investigation Agency (NIA) by Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Saturday after the local BJP unit accused the police of trying to conceal the reason behind the killing.

The murder was chillingly similar to the one in Rajasthan's Udaipur this week when a tailor Kanhaiya Lal was brutally attacked by two men who tried to behead him because he shared a post online in support of Nupur Sharma.

According to a police officer quoted by news agency PTI, "Kolhe ran a medical store in Amravati city. He had allegedly shared a post on some WhatsApp groups in support of Nupur Sharma for her comments. He even mistakenly shared the post in a WhatsApp group in which some Muslims were also members, including his customers."
