On August 6, Shankar received the money from one of his clients in the BSCIC area. Later, he left that place taking the money in a shopping bag.
As he was riding his bike at that time and the road in the area was full of potholes, the money fell out of the shopping bag.
The footage of all the shops that have CCTV cameras on his way was subsequently checked but to no avail.
