An OLA cab driver from Virar, Santosh Jha, was ferrying two Kandivli residents to Khandala on June 17, when they had a fight over payment for fuel. Santosh finally paid for it and drove ahead with the passengers, but never returned home. His body was found 10 days later in the Lonavala forest. While the Lonavala police told mid-day that the Virar police had brought the accused passengers to trace the body, the latter denied detaining anyone in the matter.
