ATS Chief Hemant Karkare who met a tragic end on 26th November night (early 27th Morning) during his operation at the Hotel Taj received a full state honor funeral, which was attended by The Maharashtra CM and Deputy CM. His colleagues recall Hemant KarKare as an encylopedia of information and an officer who always led from front. Very hard to replace an officer like Hemant, they said.

There are reports that Hemant’s wife refused compensation offered by Narendra Modi (details awaited).
