Top Mumbai caterer Hitesh Rathod, 50, who went missing on December 11 after booking several marriage events, has returned to Mumbai. According to clients who had booked catering services for weddings through Rathod, he has approached them and promised refunds. Rathod has also offered to transfer his catering business. The police, however, say he is untraceable.
In the past two days, the Kandivli police received complaints from two families who paid a total of Rs 30 lakh to Hitesh Rathod for catering services at a resort in Malad. The police stated that Rathod was still untraceable. However, sources have informed mid-day that he has wearing a burqa to hide his identity while roaming at Mira Road. He is said to be in constant contact with his manager Altaf Khan.
