The Bandra Kurla Complex police arrested two persons and seized Rs 45,000 in fake currency from them on Saturday, as well as R80,000 in cash. They gathered that the accused—who go by the names of Mehendi and Naushad—learned the process of making counterfeit notes from YouTube. They were also selling Rs 10,000 of the fake notes for Rs 5,000, and the cops suspect that’s how they made the Rs 80,000 in cash.
The two arrested are 36-year-old tailor Naushad Peer Mohammed Shah, who lives in Bharat nagar, Bandra West. The second accused, a 26-year-old hawker named Ali Mehendi Tehzib Hasan Sayed, is suspected to be the mastermind of the operation. He is a resident of Bandra’s Behram Nagar.
