The police have not been able to make any headway in the case where Amit Sachdev,a resident of Sector 70,had gone missing on July 28 from Industrial Area,Chandigarh. Amit’s car (PB 65 H 2150) in which he was travelling on the day of the incident was yet to be traced.
Police sent search teams to Haryana,Punjab and Himachal Pradesh. Amit’s location could not be traced as his mobile phone has remained switched off. Though the police have collected call details of two days prior to Amit’s disappearance,these have not led to any breakthrough.
During preliminary investigation it was found out that Amit had gone to Sector 34 before reaching Industrial Area,Chandigarh. Amit is a son of a former Chief Engineer of Punjab State Electricity Board. Amit apparently owed a lot of money to various companies he worked with.
J M Sachdeva,Amit’s father,told Newsline,“Amit generally spoke very less and showed no signs of depression. On the day of his disappearance he seemed quite normal and calm. He mentioned nothing related to his work and had no rivalry or dispute with anyone.”
Regarding many parties’ claims that Amit owed them money,Sachdeva said that these were just ‘claims’ for now as only Amit knew about all his business transactions. Amit was running a data entry business in Phase 8B,Mohali. Amit outsourced some work to other parties and paid them on completion of the work.
