Slain RTI activist's friend attacked in Pune by Toral Varia


An RTI activist, Arun Mane was attacked in Talegaon area on Sunday morning. Arun Mane is reportedly close to murdered RTI activist Satish Shetty.
 
Mane had sought police protection as he had been receiving threats. Mane has survived the attack as of now.
 
Sandeep Shetty, RTI activist Satish Shetty's brother said, "Arun Mane was very close to my brother and helped him with the cases he was working on".

Arun Mane was attacked by unknown miscreants and is now in hospital ICU at a local hospital. Mane was critically injured but now out of danger.

Mane was working on the same Talegaon land scams which Shetty had been pursuing.

In January 2010 Satish Shetty was murdered for blowing the whistle on land scams around Lonavla, Pimpri and Chinchwad area of Talegaon and Dabhade.

Police will investigate the case once Arun Mane is able to give a statement.
