Acting on tip-off, a team of Ambazari Police Staiton led by
Police Inspector Santosh Gorade rushed to Advocates Society, Hill Top and
stormed the first floor flat which was vacant. Four persons who were present in
the flat along with the cash were taken aback. Infact, according to sources,
one prominent builder, who was present on this occasion, managed to give a slip
to the cops and save himself from the unpleasant consequential action.
The cops then sought justification from these persons about
possessing such a large sum. However, they started giving evasive reply,
evoking suspicion. After quizzing them for a while, the police officers
informed their superiors and brought entire cash and four persons to police
station, for further probe.
Meanwhile, the news about seizure of huge cash went viral on
social media and rumour mongers had a field day to drag all sorts of
celebrities including politicians residing in the vicinity as the actual owner
of this cash.
After the high denomination currency was scrapped, this is
the first big action by local police. Two days ago, the Enforcement Directorate
had conducted raids against foreign exchange brokers and some businessmen.
All the four persons have been detained under Section 41 (1)
(D) of the Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC) which empowers police to arrest or
detain any individual in whose possession anything is found which may
reasonably be suspected to be stolen property and who may reasonably be
suspected of having committed an offence with reference to such thing.
