After Mumbai police shared the inputs of the caller with Kalyan GRP, the accused, a serial hoax caller, was detained by the latter, and was handed over to Dadar GRP for further investigation. “He called three-four police stations, and hence, there were jurisdictional issues to register an FIR. After much hue and cry, the case was handed over to Dadar GRP,” said a police officer on condition of anonymity.

The Kalyan GRP had in the meantime, traced the caller. “He lived in Kalyan’s Valduni area. His sister opened the door and stated that the alleged accused did not live in the flat. However, we found him in the same flat and detained him,” said a police officer. “We suspect him to be depressed as his wife left him.”
