Rohaniya Police Solve Jitendra Patel Murder Case, Five Arrested

Varanasi, June 30, 2026: Rohaniya police, with support from the Special Operations Group, have reportedly solved the murder case of businessman and trader Jitendra Patel and arrested five accused persons. The case had drawn serious local attention because of the circumstances of the killing and the reported attempt to use the victim's mobile phone after the crime.

Police-based reports said the arrested persons are being treated as accused at this stage. Their guilt or innocence will be decided through the legal process, and the investigation remains subject to further evidence and court proceedings.

Five Accused Arrested

According to reports, Rohaniya police and SOG teams worked jointly on the case and arrested five accused after tracing leads connected with the victim, movement of suspects and digital activity linked to the incident. The case concerns the death of Jitendra Patel, who was identified in reports as a businessman or kirana trader from the Rohaniya area.

Dalimss News is not publishing the names of the accused because official public documents with full details were not independently available during this verification pass. The accused should be described only as accused unless charges are proved in court.

Cybercrime Angle Under Investigation

Local reports have pointed to a possible cybercrime or UPI-linked angle in the case. Investigators are reportedly examining whether the victim's mobile phone was used, or attempted to be used, for online transfer or fraud-related activity after the crime.

Such details remain part of the investigation. Police will need to verify call records, device activity, financial transactions and any digital trail before the cyber angle can be treated as established fact. No unverified confession or motive should be treated as final.

Police Team Honoured

Reports said senior police officials praised the Rohaniya police and SOG team after the arrests. Police Commissioner Mohit Agarwal was reported to have commended the team, though Dalimss News is not publishing any specific cash reward or citation amount without a directly available official note.

Recognition of police teams in serious crime cases usually follows the recovery of evidence, arrest of accused persons and presentation of the case record before the competent court.

Further Legal Proceedings Underway

The accused are expected to face further legal action under the relevant sections based on the police case diary, forensic material and other evidence collected during investigation. The prosecution will have to establish the sequence of events before court.

The case also underlines the growing importance of digital evidence in serious crime investigations. When mobile phones, UPI transactions or online accounts become part of a case, investigators must preserve technical evidence carefully so that it can withstand legal scrutiny.
