Sanap married thrice his first wife died, and the second one left him. He was staying with his third wife and 14-month-old son in Nashik.

They added that Sanap was an alcoholic and a womaniser, due to which he had to sell his porter’s badge and move to Nashik.
“He had come to Mumbai as his driving licence had become invalid and he wanted to renew it. But he ended up spending all his money on liquor and in Kamathipura. So he decided to snatch a bag at LTT and make some easy money. That’s when he met Esther on January 5,” said an officer from the Crime Branch.
