TWO ‘TERRORISTS’ TURN OUT TO BE ACTORS | 1 June, 2019

OUT TO BE ACTORS

Two small-time actors who had step­ped out in their costumes to fetch ciga­rettes, were mistaken for terrorists on 27th May. Hours later, the faux pas came to light when the Palghar district police iden­tified the ‘terrorists’ as small-time actors. The police forthwith launched a search for the ‘terrorists’, spotted in Vasai. The Man­ickpur police registered a case under IPC section 188 (disobeying an order promulgated by a public servant) against actors Balram Ginwal and Arbaaz Khan, loca­tion co-ordinator Himalaya Patil and unit in-charge Dattaram Lad. The search for the ‘terrorists’ began when the police con­trol room received a call from Anil Maha­jan, the security guard of a bank in Vasai.
