Was it a drunken brawl that led to police informer Avinash Solanki's death? His alleged killer and 'friend' Nilesh Shukla says he doesn't remember. Without showing any sign of remorse after being arrested by the MIDC police on Saturday, Shukla, 38, admitted to murdering his pal, but claimed to have no memory of what led him to commit the crime.

Prime accused Shukla was arrested from Lucknow along with his driver Vanshbahadur Singh alias Jagga, 48, while the third suspect, Shukla's bodyguard Ankit Dubey alias Munna, 19, was arrested from Nalasopara. Shukla owned a pharmaceutical company that manufactures viagra and liver ailment drugs. He and Solanki became friends after the latter got him arrested in a narcotics case in 2008. They'd often meet for drinks. During interrogation, Shukla told cops that he is unclear of his motive behind committing the crime.
