RAJKOT: A vengeful woman employee at a Gandhidham-based firm attempted to torch a factory unit after her boyfriend was fired from his job.
According to Gandhidham police, the incident occurred at Canam international (P) Ltd, at Gandhidham on July 5 at around 5.30pm.
Mayaben Parmar (24), a resident of Ganesh Nagar in Gandhidham and native of Banaskantha, tried to set the factory ablaze by using a lighter and burning a cloth-ladden trolly, said cops.
“The workers at the unit saw the fire and extinguished it immediately and averted major disaster as there was huge cloth stock at the unit where the fire had occurred. After the incident, management checked the CCTV footage to check how the fire took place and saw Parmar lighting the stack of clothes,” police sources said.
