Officers of the Mumbai Crime Branch Unit IX have arrested a ‘fake cop’, who along with his five associates, had kidnapped and extorted money from a 26-year-old after threatening to book him for drug consumption. The suspect was arrested on Monday and the officers have identified his associates who are yet to be arrested.
According to Raj Tilak Roushan (IPS), the incident took place on June 30. The complainant Yash Savla was at a bar with a female friend when a group of four men claiming to be police officers approached Savla and said “chala amchya barobar” (come with us). “One of the men told Savla that they had found he consumed drugs. He got frightened and accompanied the men in an auto-rickshaw,” Roushan said.
