The Mulund police arrested four youngsters on Monday, alleging their involvement in creating fake garba passes during a Navratri event. The event management company reported an unexpected surge in crowd attendance at the venue, prompting rigorous security checks that uncovered several fake passes. A event was organised by Prerna Raas at Mulund’s Kalidas Natya Mandir, starting on October 15. Morya Entertainment secured the contract for event management, including verifying the validity of passes.
Two types of passes were issued: season passes for all nine nights costing R1,800 and single-night passes for Rs 300. Passes were exclusively available for purchase at Kalidas starting from October 12. The doorkeepers were instructed to punch each pass and scan the barcode. A police officer said, “A sudden surge in attendance on October 17 and 18 raised suspicions as they were weekdays.
