Businessman accuses them of demanding ransom from him, running establishment into losses.
While the hotel business can be risky, the COVID-19 pandemic has certainly made things worse for this sector. However, the imbroglio that has emerged at a city-based hotel takes all these factors and escalates them by several notches.
A case has been registered at Koregaon Park police station (PS) against six people of InterContinental Hotels Group India Private Limited (IHG) by Deepak Raheja of NEO Capricorn Plaza Pvt Ltd, for allegedly demanding a ransom of Rs 85 lakh. Those named as accused include IHG managing directors Sudip Jain and Pascal Garvin, area general manager Norton Pereira, Crowne Plaza Pune City Centre general manager Fino Babu, and other employees Venkatesh Gomatam and Anjeline Yap.
