MOON DAS

Spurned lover kills model’s mom & uncle,

MUMBAI, Nov. 23: A spurned lover of a 23-year-old aspiring model and actress, Moon Das allegedly shot her mother, Mrs Kannan Das and uncle, Mr Vikas Chandra Sarkar, before committing suicide inside the apartment of his ex-girlfriend in Andheri's Yamuna Nagar.
Avinash Bhupen Patnaik (22), a resident of Orissa entered the ninth floor apartment of his ex-girlfriend Moon Das situated in the New Link Garden building, the police officers said today. Moon Das and Avinash Bhupen Patnaik had got acquainted, when the former had gone to Orissa in order to perform in a new year’s eve programme on 31 December.
Gradually the two entered into a relationship which lasted for about seven-eight months. The girl had, however, recently ended the relationship and an agitated Patnaik, armed with a country-made revolver, entered her apartment at 11.00 p.m. yesterday looking for Moon.
“He could not find her there and shot at her mother and maternal uncle inside the apartment from a point blank range. Das came to the house at around 12.10 a.m. along with a male friend and discovered the bodies and also saw Patnaik standing there,” a senior police officer from the Oshiwara police station said.
Moon’s male friend locked Patnaik inside a room and took her to the police station. However, Patnaik is suspected to have shot himself in the head. He was found dead in the room, according to the police sources.
