police have recovered 67 cabs from a travel agency owner, who had disappeared last November with around 110 cabs attached to his travel agency without paying its owners. According to police, the accused, Shivakumar, had sustained losses and fled the city without paying the agreed monthly amount to the cab owners. Search is on for the remaining cabs, which Shivakumar claims to have attached with private firms in and around Bengaluru. Shivakumar had his office,RS Tours
and Travels, at MEI Layout, Bagalagunte. It was closed from the second week of November. His employees Srikant and Krishne Gowda too vanished with their mobile phones switched off. The first complaint against Shivakumar and the others was filed by a cabbie, Manjunath, on November 16. “I had attached my cab with RS Tours and Travels in March 2021. Shivakumar would pay me Rs 15,000 every month for it. Like me, there were hundreds of cab owners who did the same,” he said. However, Shivakumar stopped paying them around October and was incommunicado from November. tnn
