KOLKATA: Anirban Saha, a 44-year-old trader who lives and runs his shop on Beliaghata Main Road, was kidnapped from his shop and repeatedly assaulted on Monday afternoon before being finally dumped in front of a local nursing home.
His wife Papri Saha has alleged that a local syndicate gang affiliated with the ruling party was involved in the attack. She claimed that the accused had attacked Anirban after he rewarded the contract of redeveloping his plywood shop to a contractor not aligned with the syndicate. The condition of Anirban, with broken legs and a hand and an injured rib cage, was stated to be serious.
