The case has been filed after a complaint by Shivansh Ashish Singh, the personal assistant of Narwekar, with the Marine Drive police.
As per the complaint, two persons claiming to be close to Narwekar approached Nandita Bedi, associated with the tours and travel company responsible for organising MLA tours to Africa. The duo demanded money for arranging a tour for the MLAs.
