An Indian businessman from Pune who became famous after buying a ‘gold shirt’ was clubbed to death in front of his son on Thursday.
Datta Phuge, 48, from the industrial township of Pimpri-Chinchwad became famous after he stitched an opulent INR10 million 22-carat pure gold shirt for himself.
The millionaire money lender was attacked by 12 people at an open ground in Dighi area in Pune on Thursday night with stones and a sharp weapon, killing him on the spot.
Indian business dreads lifting of Iran sanctions
“As per preliminary information, Phuge and his son were invited by one of the suspects, who know each other, to celebrate a birthday. However, we are investigating how Phuge reached the open ground where he was murdered,” Dighi police station inspector Navnath Ghogare said.
Phuge’s 22-year-old son, who witnessed his father’s murder, was spared by the attackers, according to the police.
Police suspect that some disagreement over a money transaction could be the reason behind the murder.
“We have detained four persons and suspect that dispute over a money transaction between them could be the motive behind his murder,” said Ghogare.
Phuge was into money lending and chit fund business.
