The police said the accused, Hasnain Sayed Ali alias Irani, 28, was also booked under the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act, 1999.

The police said Hasnain was arrested in a filmy style when a huge crowd of women tried to protest and manhandle the police while arresting him but eventually nabbed him.

The police claimed that usually, such protests are formed by women at Irani Basti near Ambivali station to confuse the police and help the accused to run away.
