The Bhoiwada police have nabbed two lawyers and a woman for allegedly attempting to extort money from a minor boy, threatening to take him to the police station after he was found in the company of a minor girl in a park. The trio demanded Rs 30,000 from the brother of the boy and threatened to ruin his life if the amount was not paid. While the brother paid Rs 1,500 to them, police officers in a van on patrol noticed the group arguing with the minor and his brother and immediately took them to the police station.
The incident occurred around 6 pm on Monday. The 20-year-old received a call from his brother’s mobile phone from a man who identified himself as advocate Akash Adhav. “He called and said that he was practising at Bhoiwada court and found my 17-year-old brother with a 15-year-old girl at Aryabhatta Garden. He threatened me saying a police van was coming to the spot and asked what action should be taken,” the Parel resident said to the police.
