Pune: An incident has come to light wherein the manager of a showroom, Izhar Kazi (30) from Rasta Peth Pune, discovered missing cash during a routine check on Saturday morning.

It is alleged that the accused identified as Pramod Kumar, a security guard from Uttar Pradesh, is the main culprit behind the act. As per information, Kumar was employed at the motorcycle showroom.

According to the police, Kazi managed two showrooms, Shewalewadi and Fatima Nagar. Following standard protocol, cash was collected and handed to the accused, who then passed it to another employee named Suraj Kumar.

Subsequently, Surajkumar submitted the cash to the Fatima Nagar office, where Kazi was stationed. The security guard was working at the showroom for several months and was responsible for safeguarding the property during non-operational hours.
