The Malad Police in Mumbai have launched a manhunt to nab a suspect who worked at a gold jewellery making workshop and alleged fled away with gold worth Rs 24 lakh, an official said on Monday.
The Malad police have registered a case and launched an investigation.
According to police sources, the complainant, a Kandivali resident, owns a gold jewelry manufacturing factory in the Kanchpada locality of Malad West, where around 40 employees are working, crafting gold ornaments from raw materials. A worker named Budho Shaikh, who was employed since April, last reported for work a week ago but has since been absent. When the businessman checked the vault two days ago, he noticed a shortfall in gold raw materials.
He called Shaikh, but his phone remained switched off. Suspecting theft, the jeweler approached the Malad police station and filed a complaint.
