Brutal Murder of Notorious Criminal in Jaipur Shocks Community
Shocking Murder in Jaipur
Jaipur. A shocking murder incident unfolded in Jaipur, Rajasthan, on Wednesday night. In the Jagdamba Nagar area of the Kardhani police station, assailants surrounded and killed Vijay Bajiya, a history-sheeter from the Jobner police station. The attackers first rammed his Fortuner car with a camper vehicle, forcing it to stop, and then assaulted him with sticks and an axe. Reports indicate that the entire attack was executed in just over a minute.
Fortuner Stopped by Camper Collision
According to reports, Vijay Bajiya was driving his Fortuner towards Jaipur from Jobner around 8 PM when he was pursued by assailants in a camper. Near Jagdamba Nagar in Kardhani, the attackers collided with his vehicle.
After the collision, Vijay attempted to escape by exiting his vehicle, but the attackers quickly surrounded him. They then unleashed a brutal assault with sticks and an axe, leading to fatal injuries. Following the attack, the assailants fled the scene in their camper.
Old Rivalry Suspected Behind the Murder
Initial police investigations suggest that the murder may be linked to an old rivalry. Reports indicate that a dispute arose in 2019 following the murder of a young man named Kailash in the Jobner area, leading to ongoing tensions between Vijay and the opposing group. Allegedly, members of this rival faction had been targeting him for some time. It has also been reported that Vijay had previously survived multiple attacks.
Vijay Had 15 Criminal Cases Against Him
Vijay Bajiya was a resident of Tibariyan village in the Jobner police jurisdiction and was recorded as a history-sheeter. Police records indicate that he faced a total of 15 criminal cases across Jobner, Kalwad, and Kardhani police stations, including two murder charges. He had been involved in criminal activities for nearly a decade.
Political Aspirations and Controversies
Following his murder, discussions have emerged regarding Vijay's political ambitions. Reports suggest he was preparing to contest for the position of sarpanch in the Khejrawas gram panchayat, having already put up posters to announce his candidacy. However, his criminal background and past cases had led to opposition from the village community regarding his entry into the electoral race.
Property Disputes Also Under Investigation
It has been reported that Vijay was involved in property dealings while residing in a rented flat in the Kalwad area. During this time, he encountered several disputes over property evictions and claims. The police are investigating these property-related conflicts alongside the old rivalry as potential motives for the murder.
Police Investigation Underway with Video Evidence
Upon receiving news of the incident, the Kardhani police arrived at the scene and transported the injured Vijay to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead. There are reports that bystanders recorded videos during the incident. The police are currently examining the scene and reviewing nearby CCTV footage to piece together the events and identify the suspects involved.
