In Pune, India, four police personnel have been suspended due to their alleged involvement with Radheshyam Prajapati, a key suspect in the illicit liquor trade. This decision was made by Pune Rural Superintendent of Police, Sandeep Singh Gill, following a tragic incident where at least 15 individuals died from consuming toxic liquor in Pune city and the Pimpri-Chinchwad area.
