Hardoi, Aug. 29 -- Shailendra alias Gauri Shankar (33), BJP booth president of Shahbad, was found dead in a pond near Nevaadwadi village, nine days after going missing.
The shocking discovery was made today morning when villagers entered the pond in a boat. Their boat got stuck in a cloth, and when they pulled it, Shailendra's body surfaced. The body had been tied to a peg at the bottom of the pond to prevent it from floating.
Shailendra was last seen on August 21, after a fight at a beer shop in Badi Bazar with local youth Pawan Bhardwaj and his companions. CCTV footage confirmed the altercation. Later that night, he disappeared, prompting his father, Ramlal, to file a missing person's report at Shahbad police station.
