So both of them along with Saluja planned to loot a vehicle after killing its driver and then sell it through a friend in Madhya Pradesh.<\/p>\n<p>It said that on January 7, 2008, Vipin went to the office of a travel firm here and hired a Toyota Innova vehicle, which was being driven by 25-year-old Upender Anand, on the pretext of going to Mussoorie. On the way, Kumar and the juvenile accused also boarded the vehicle.<\/p>\n<p>On the way back from Mussoorie, they stopped the vehicle in Dehradun, strangled Upender Anand and took away his rings, credit cards, two mobile phones and cash and threw him out.<\/p>\n<p>It said proprietor of the travel firm lodged a complaint that his driver had not returned from Mussorie. Thereafter, through media report, police got to know that Upender&#8217;s body had been found at Mussoorie-Dehradun road.<\/p>\n<p>During the probe, the accused were arrested and several robbed articles recovered.
