Gujarat Forest Officer Shot in Car, Police Treat Missing Husband as Prime Suspect

Investigators shifted from a crash theory to attempted murder based on forensic findings tied to her earlier GPS‑tracker complaint.

Overview

  • Sonal Solanki, 33, remains in critical condition after surgeons extracted a 7.65 mm bullet from her head.
  • Surat Rural police have deployed search teams as RTO inspector Nikunj Goswami remains untraceable with his phone switched off.
  • Forensic teams are matching the recovered bullet with Goswami’s licensed revolver reportedly stored in Mehsana.
  • CCTV shows her car looping the route twice minutes before the crash, and police plan to record her four-year-old son’s statement with family consent.
  • Days earlier, she reported an illegal GPS tracker on her car and alleged harassment by her husband; her brothers have now lodged a complaint against him.
