According to the police complaint, Pawar was walking along the Sarola-Veer road with Pal's wife and her minor daughter when the accused allegedly arrived at the spot.
Police said Pal approached Pawar from behind near the house of Mahesh Dhadve and allegedly attacked him with a sharp weapon.
Pawar suffered multiple injuries to his neck and throat. He died at the scene, according to the complaint. The CCTV footage is now an important part of the investigation as police try to establish exactly how the confrontation unfolded.
Following the incident, Pawar's cousin, Amit Jagnnath Pawar, approached Rajgad Police Station and lodged a complaint.
Police have registered a case against Deepak Manohar Pal under Section 103(1) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) and Section 4(27) of the Arms Act.

Investigators are also looking into the reason behind Pal's alleged suspicion that his wife was in a relationship with Pawar.
Police are examining CCTV footage and other evidence to reconstruct the events leading up to the alleged murder.
Investigators will also look into the circumstances surrounding Pawar's presence with the accused's wife and her daughter when the attack allegedly took place.
At this stage, the suspected relationship remains an allegation and forms part of the police investigation.
