He had two years left in his service before retirement in 2028. On September 24, at around 11 pm, Bhoir was involved in a scuffle with Raju Premkumar Valmiki, a 30-year-old man who had been detained by his team. The confrontation escalated when Valmiki allegedly pushed Bhoir, causing him to fall onto the road. Valmiki then allegedly struck Bhoir on the head with a cement brick. Bhoir died minutes later at Titan Hospital in Manpada due to a severe head injury and internal bleeding.",
