According to police, a 30-year-old vegetable vendor, Amit Bais, with critical injuries was discovered in the Koradi area. He was rushed to the hospital in a serious condition where doctors declared him dead upon arrival.
Earlier, it was speculated that some unidentified assailant(s) had killed him, as police officials noted a severe injury to the upper part of Bais’s ear, reportedly caused by a blunt force, likely a boulder. Koradi Police, under the supervision of senior police officers, initiated a thorough investigation into the circumstances.
