An imposter was apprehended by the Manickpur police in Vasai on Monday thanks to the awareness and presence of mind displayed by a 32-year-old woman. According to her police statement, the woman, who works as a kitchen, was on her way home when she was approached on the Vasai skywalk by an imposter posing as a police officer. The imposter made outrageous claims and threatened to file a complaint against her. Fearful of the threats, the woman gave the man Rs. 1500. She did note, however, that the man was robbing other passersby under various pretences. The woman, sensing something odd, informed two uniformed constables about the occurrence, who arrived on the scene quickly and caught the imposter after a high-speed chase. The imposter, Sandip Devgirkar (38) of Virar, was apprehended and charged under sections 170 (impersonating a public worker) and 420 (cheating) of the Indian Penal Code. The Manickpur police are continuing their investigation into the case, not ruling out the possibility of his involvement in a number of other recorded or unreported crimes. Read the full article

A 29-year-old woman commuting alone in the ladies compartment of a local train was attacked and robbed by a man at Vasai. Government Railway Police (GRP) are scanning CCTV footage from railway stations between Vasai and Naigaon to identify the man. The woman was left bleeding from the head and had to take stitches. The Vasai resident was out to meet a friend as it was her day off from work. Around 7.40pm, she entered the secondclass middle ladies coach of an Andheri slow local from platform 1 of Vasai station, and was seated with her back to the door. As the train started, a man boarded the compartment and tried to snatch her phone. “The woman was taken by surprise as she had not seen him enter. He repeatedly hit her on the forehead and her face with a hard object. She resisted and while grappling with her, he flung it outside the train,” said a police officer. The man then snatched her gold chain, which broke, so he picked up part of it and jumped off at Naigaon. The woman, who was bleeding from her forehead and was traumatised, alighted at Naigaon and went to a hospital, where she got stitches. After consulting her family, she approached Vasai GRP post and lodged a complaint on Sunday. “The man had been roaming on the platform at Vasai before noticing her seated alone in the ladies compartment. We suspect he is a habitual criminal,” said an officer. A case of robbery has been registered under IPC. Read the full article

Fraudsters are devising novel ways to dupe people of their hard-earned money. Sleuths of the Manikpur police are on the lookout for imposters who mimicked a lady doctor to cheat a local jeweler of Rs. 50,000 in Vasai on Sunday. In his FIR registered with the police, the complainant identified as Devilal Jaath (24) who works as an assistant at Anand Jewellers stated that the shop owner Sheshmal Jain received a call from a woman who identified herself as a doctor working at a reputed hospital in Vasai. The caller told him that she wanted to purchase gold bangles from him and had Rs. 1 lakh in Rs 2,000 denomination notes out of which she was ready to pay him Rs 50,000 in advance in exchange of Rs. 50,000 back as change for the Rs. 1 lakh she had with her. The jeweller agreed and sent his assistant Devilal Jath with Rs. 50,000 to the hospital for collecting Rs. 1 lakh cash in Rs 2000 denomination notes. When Jaath was walking up the stairs of the hospital an unknown person with his face covered with a Covid-19 mask met him and introduced himself as the son of the doctor. He asked Jaath to pay him the Rs 50,000 and he will immediately bring back Rs. 1 lakh from the cash counter. Jath obliged, but the wait never ended as the person did not turn up with the cash.
