Cops find voice recording in dead man’s phone,detain 3

“When we checked Yadav’s mobile we found a voice recording in a man’s voice saying that he had stolen an ATM card but since he did not have the pin number he searched for it in the cupboard of the ATM card-owner but did not find it,” M Herpude,API,Malad police said. “When we checked the data we found that the ATM card was used last by the victim as recorded by the CCTV camera installed at the ATM centre,” Herpude said.

“We have detained Rajesh and two other relatives. All the victim’s relatives said that the voice in the phone recording seems to be that of Yadav,” Herpude added. Police officers are now probing whether the victim stole the ATM card that led him to commit suicide or did the killers make him record his voice on the phone and then shot him.

Herpude said that the hole in the temple was a gun shot as they have recovered a bullet from the temple and have also seized an empty cartridge from Yadav’s wrist.

“We are now finding out whether Yadav committed suicide or was murdered,” Herpude said.
