Gun License Controversy Exposed: The tragic story of Vaishnavi Hagwane continues to stir strong emotions, now revealing a disturbing misuse of power. Her husband, Shashank Hagwane, and brother-in-law, Sushil Hagwane, reportedly obtained firearm licenses through suspicious means. Jalindar Supekar, a senior police officer and their maternal uncle, allegedly used his influence to approve these licenses despite glaring irregularities.
Investigating sources confirmed that Shashank and Sushil submitted incomplete or possibly forged documents during the application process. Yet, they still walked away with gun licenses documents that usually demand strict scrutiny. Supekar’s recommendation and signature, which carry considerable authority, fast-tracked the approval, bypassing standard legal checks.

This revelation adds another layer to a case already burdened by accusations of emotional and physical abuse. Granting weapons to individuals under scrutiny raises alarm not just for Vaishnavi’s family, but for public safety at large. The situation underlines a bigger issue, corruption and nepotism that seem to undermine justice and safety protocols.
The Maharashtra State Commission for Women has stepped in with urgency. Chairperson Rupali Chakankar sent an official letter to the Bar Council of Maharashtra and Goa, urging it to evaluate legal conduct and call for reforms. The Commission demanded a clear set of rules to prevent such misuse in sensitive cases.
Law enforcement has now launched an internal inquiry. Officers are digging into whether Supekar knowingly enabled this shortcut in the licensing process and whether others within the system supported this bypass.
Vaishnavi’s family continues to fight for justice. They have urged authorities to investigate not just the gun license scandal, but the larger web of protection and influence that may have emboldened the accused. Public anger is now pushing the spotlight toward systemic flaws that may have contributed to Vaishnavi’s tragedy.
