According to police, Mukesh Gadda (52) allegedly assaulted Imran Ansari (40) with the help of his aides at two garment units in the city while accusing him of keeping the commission money for stitching dresses of a particular make to himself. The complainant told police that Gadda had called him to the factory on June 29 and beat him up with the help of his relatives and other aides, a Dindoshi police station official said.
