The Mira Bhayandar Vasai Virar (MBVV) crime branch unit 3 has effectively solved the murder case of Pramodkumar Govind Bind, a 45-year-old chawl builder whose body was discovered in his room in Nalasopara East. In connection with the incident, the police have arrested Sameerkumar, also known as Shamsher Baccha Bind, a 30-year-old man.

According to the MBVV crime branch, Shamsher, a contractor who specialised in building chawls, planned the murder after amassing significant gambling debts. The accused secured a Rs 25,000 loan by mortgaging his bike, intending to invest it in his construction firm. However, he lost the entire amount in a single night of gambling with his friends.
