A heated argument over an electricity bill turned tragic, when a tenant allegedly hit the house owner on his head with a hammer and left him to die. The murder came to light on May 2, when the residents of Bangadpada, Govandi, noticed a foul smell emanating from the victim’s house. When the Shivaji Nagar police arrived, they found the body of Ganpati Jha, 49, on the first floor of the tenement.
“We had suspected the body to be two days old. We informed Jha’s cousin about his death,” said an officer. Jha’s cousin Yogendra Jha had seen the body before it was taken to Rajawadi Hospital for post mortem.
