Sources in the police department revealed that the man, Maher Ali Shah had gone missing in December, and was last seen outside a bank. Shah was an employee of the education department, hailing from the Sonda area of the district.

His relatives made resolute efforts to find him, but all in vain. Later, they lodged an FIR under Section 365 (kidnapping or abduction).

After registration of the FIR, police launched a multi-spatial probe and made the breakthrough with the help of technical experts.

Subsequently, they apprehended two suspects, identified as Ghulam Nabi Chang and Nazar Ali Chang, who confessed to killing Shah and stealing Rs50,000 from him.
