According to the report’s findings, Patil had consumed a heavy dose of pesticide because of which his internal organs were damaged.

The 84-year-old Dhule farmer Dharma Patil, who died after consuming poison, hailed from Vikharan village.

Finance minister Sudhir Mungantiwar, however, warned the Sena not to politicise the issue.

Mr Malik alleged that Mr Rawal was part of the land mafia in Dhule district and purchased land from farmers at meagre prices.

Mr Rawal and Mr Mahajan said that they would request the CM for the speedy inquiry and give appropriate compensation to Patil’s family.
