Updated: May 31st, 2024
Amid the tragic loss of lives in the Rajkot fire tragedy, the Pradyuman Nagar police have filed a complaint against a man who claimed his neighbour’s kid and nephew were missing from the TRP Game Zone.
43-year-old Hitesh alias Vijay Pandya, a resident of Rajlakshmi Society, at Rajkot’s Kothariya Road informed the police present at Rajkot Civil Hospital that his neighbour’s kid and his nephew were missing from the fire that broke out at Rajkot TRP Game Zone.
However, the police were suspicious as a distant relative was approaching them after three days of the tragedy.
Not funny
Upon interrogation, it was revealed that the accused lied about the missing kids.
His family informed the police that he has a habit of ‘joking around’.
While Pandya went to the civil hospital, he was roaming outside the post-mortem room. As police asked him about his presence there, he lied about the missing reports.
The police have filed a complaint against him for misleading the police and giving false information.
