Thane, Oct. 27 -- The family of slain Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Pradeep Purnekar on Monday released CCTV footage that they claim shows Rajendra Shinde, husband of former Thane mayor and Shiv Sena leader Meenakshi Shinde, alongside three of the accused at a tea stall shortly before the murder on September 29. The family also warned of a protest outside deputy chief minister Eknath Shinde's residence if Rajendra and Meenakshi Shinde aren't arrested within 24 hours. Purnekar, a Shiv Sena (UBT) ward chief, was shot and hacked to death in his office in Manpada by multiple masked assailants on September 29. While five people have been arrested, and Rajendra and Meenakshi Shinde have been questioned, Purnekar's family have continued to demand the couple's arrest, accusing them of being the masterminds who orchestrated the entire murder conspiracy due to political rivalry. On Monday, Purnekar's son, Ram Purnekar, held a press conference presenting what he claimed to be videos and photos directly linking Rajendra Shinde to the murder. One video purportedly shows Rajendra Shinde sitting at a tea stall in Pawar Nagar with three of the arrested accused-Nitesh Pawar, Pappya Shinde and Santosh Kanojia-roughly an hour and a half before the murder. Purnekar also presented CCTV footage from the crime scene showing one of the accused, who is wearing a helmet, and claimed that his clothes and footwear matched those worn by Rajendra Shinde earlier that evening. "The shirt, trousers and loafers Rajendra Shinde is wearing in the video match those of the fifth accused, who was wearing a helmet in the CCTV footage of the attack," Purnekar told HT. HT reached out to deputy commissioner of police (crime) Amarsinh Jadhav, the head of the SIT, for the Thane police's response to the allegations, but he did not respond. Meenakshi Shinde declined to comment on the matter....
