Virendrasinh Tawde, the prime accused in the rationalist Narendra Dabholkar murder case, had asked Sanjay Sadvilkar, now a key prosecution witness, to arrange for bullets, code-named "chocolates", and make a pistol replica, the prosecution said on Saturday.
This was revealed by Sadvilkar during his examination in the special court by special public prosecutor (SPP) Prakash Suryawanshi.
"Sanjay Sadvilkar who owned a shop selling idols etc. told the court that due to his business he was attracted to a Hindutva organisation. He got in touch with Dr Tawde, an accused in the Dabholkar murder case, and started working with him occasionally. On the occasion of Sant Gadge Maharaj jayanti, Tawde had a verbal spat with Dabholkar," Mr. Suryawanshi said quoting Sadvilkar.
