The FIR in the matter was finally registered after a fortnight on Saturday.According to the Sagar district police superintendent Vikas Kumar Sahwal, eight teams have been constituted to crack the crime at the earliest. “The ongoing investigations have established the role of the untraceable securityman, who surprisingly was hired without any prior police verification. A case of burglary has been registered against the securityman and investigations are underway,” he said.
