The body of a 39-year-old bank executive Siddharth Sanghavi, who went missing five days ago, was found and a person has been detained in connection with the death. A 20-year-old cab driver, Sarfaraz Shaikh alias Rais, a resident of Koparkhairane in Navi Mumbai along with our other people, including a woman, have been detained in connection with the case which appears to be a fallout of professional rivalry, police said.
Sarfaraz Shaikh was allegedly hired to kill Siddharth Sanghavi, a vice-president with a top private bank in south Mumbai who went missing on September 5 evening. The accused driver was initially detained by the Navi Mumbai Crime Branch and handed over to the Mumbai Police, which placed him under arrest, Deputy Commissioner of Police (Crime) Tushar Doshi said. "We found his role in hatching the conspiracy, murder and destroying Sanghavi's body," he said. The car used in the crime was found parked near Shaikh's residence, he said. Shaikh allegedly killed Sanghavi on Wednesday, the day he went missing, and dumped his body near the Haji Malang shrine at Kalyan in neighbouring Thane district, another official said.
