A shocking case has come to light in Navi Mumbai where a truck cleaner has accused former IAS officer Sanjeev Khedkar and his family of abduction and abuse. The victim alleged that he was forcibly taken to the Khedkar residence, locked inside a room, and subjected to inhumane treatment for several days.
According to the victim’s statement, he was denied proper food and water, often being served stale meals. He further claimed that he was threatened with dire consequences, including death, if he attempted to escape or inform the police. “They gave me stale food, locked me up, and even threatened to kill me,” he said, describing his ordeal.
Police officials confirmed that a complaint has been registered, and an investigation is underway. The accused are being questioned, and authorities are trying to verify the sequence of events through CCTV footage and witness statements.
This incident has sparked outrage in the local community, with residents demanding strict action against those responsible. Activists have pointed out that such cases highlight the vulnerability of daily-wage workers, who often face harassment and exploitation but lack the resources to seek justice.
While the investigation continues, the victim has been shifted to a safe location. Authorities assured that his medical and psychological well-being is being taken care of. The Navi Mumbai police have promised swift action if the allegations are proven true.
The disturbing case has reignited debate over power misuse and the treatment of low-income workers, raising questions about accountability and protection of vulnerable individuals in society.
