Krishna Nagde (40), a worker in Satara's sugar sector, is the focus of the case. According to reports, from October 10, 2023, to January 8, workers at many sugar mills were denied additional compensation for their efforts. Some staff left due to a perceived lack of further pay.
According to the lawsuit, the defendants held Nagde captive and physically assaulted him because they suspected him of inciting workers to flee. The accused include a supervisor from a sugar mill. There have been no arrests made concerning the event.
The police are acting in response to the victim's claim that the accused forced her into confinement and physically abused her. The filing of the FIR is the first stage in the legal process of investigating the alleged mistreatment of Krishna Nagde and holding those involved accountable for their conduct.
