Teams to crack double murder

Staff Reporter

BANGALORE: The police are yet to find a definite clue on Tuesday in the murder of Swayamprakash Mazumdar (60), Managing Director of Ken Agrotech Private Ltd., and Chandrashekar Shetty, (45), the company's accounts officer, near BDA Complex on Monday.

The police suspect that the assailants might have tried to get the signature of Mazumdar to a document pertaining to the company or his property as he had received in injury on his thumb and pointing finger.

The police have constituted two teams to crack the case. The teams have started questioning people connected to the late Mazumdar, including Vivek Naik, Director of the company, which exports gherkins, a variety of cucumber.
