Mumbai Man Arrested for Using Fake PMO ID to Enter Jio World Plaza Ahead of PM Visit
Mumbai police arrested Rohan Parekh and his security guard for attempting to enter Jio World Plaza with a fake Prime Minister's Office (PMO) identity card a day before Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit. Parekh, a 24-year-old with a background in mathematics and drone technology, may have been duped into believing he held a legitimate PMO role, according to his lawyer. The group was stopped after security detected a firearm carried by the guard. Investigations continue, including a search for a third accomplice who fled the scene.
