A 32-year-old man has been detained for making multiple hoax calls to various police stations in Mumbai, and telling them that a member from the gang of jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi is arriving in the city via train at Dadar railway station. The accused, who was later identified as Chandrashekhar Vamne, triggered panic among the police force at a time when the cops are heavily immersed in investigating the recent firing incident on actor Salman Khan, who allegedly has been receiving threats from the jailed gangster.
After confusion over jurisdiction issues, the Dadar GRP are in the process of registering an FIR against the caller who had called different police stations—Shivaji Park, Dadar and Bhoiwada—across Mumbai on April 19. After receiving the call, sleuths from different police stations in Mumbai swung into action and reached Dadar railway station. After scanning everything at the station premises, the cops learnt that it was a hoax call. Later, the cops identified the caller, whose location was traced to Kalyan.
