The Navi Mumbai Crime Branch has arrested one and is searching for six others for allegedly beating 19-year-old Koparkhairane resident Rohan Todkar to death, all based on the footwear seen in a photo of the youth being kicked and trampled on.

Todkar was part of the Maratha morcha on July 25. While protesting, he had been caught by some villagers from the area and beaten up badly, after which he'd succumbed to his injuries in JJ Hospital last Thursday. Other agitators, who were part of the morcha with him, had then demanded that strict action be taken against the culprits.
Crime branch officers found a photo sent to other protesters, which showed a group of men kicking and stepping on Todkar, challenging the recipients to "come and rescue him if you have guts". Based on the footwear seen in the photo sent, officers arrested one culprit.
