The site supervisor informed police about it and the body was sent for post-mortem to SSG Hospital. “The labourers said that there was nothing at the spot when the sand was unloaded on the previous evening. It was during the night that somebody hid the body since nobody stays there,” said inspector V P Chauhan of Bapod police station.
VADODARA: People in the sales business push themselves and their colleagues hard to overachieve their targets. However, a manager of a loan recovery agency went a step further when an agent under him could not achieve his target.
The recovery agency’s manager identified as Deepesh Singre and his two friends thrashed the collection agent named Jitendra Chhugani on Friday. Chhugani, a resident of Ajwa Road, was sent to collect an outstanding loan amount from a customer in Chhani. When Chhugani reached Chhani, the customer was not available so he called Singre to inform him about it. Chhugani was asked to wait in Chhani but he went to Fatehgunj and waited there.
