Times News NetworkBangalore: The Lahiris and Mukherjees are still in a state of shock following the robbery and murder of 32-year-old software engineer Adhip Lahiri.
The family feels it was not murder for gain and suspects a sinister motive as Adhip was gagged and bound with ropes and scotch tape. Adhip’s father Arun Chandra Lahiri, a retired deputy chief engineer with LIC, says his son was not the kind of person who was foolish to stop his car while driving through lonely stretches. His office was in ITBP and he lived near Manipal Hospital. He was to leave for Germany on Monday from Kolkata.
Adhip’s credit cards were also robbed at the time of the murder. On Sunday, when the family called the bank to block his credit cards they found that his HSBC card was already blocked. The bank said an attempt was made to use the card around 3 pm on Sunday. After a few unsuccessful attempts at guessing the PIN it may have got automatically blocked, they suspect.
On the fateful night, Adhip’s wife Aparna called him at 11.30 pm. The cell rang for some time. When she tried again later it was switched off. It was then that she panicked and called the police.

It's a very shocking news for me , as I had worked with Aparna while at Bangalore and have met Adhit couple of times. He was a jolly fellow.
Karnataka govt has to really seek into this, otherwise Bangalore which is known as IT hub will be known as murder hub .....
