Maharashtra: Ex-navy man loses chain to fake policeman

NAVI MUMBAI: A 63-year-old retired navy man has lodged a complaint at the Kharghar police station against an unidentified man, who posed as a cop and decamped with his gold chain worth Rs 38,000 last month.

The incident occurred on June 16 at around 7pm, but the senior citizen lodged a complaint a month after the incident on July 16. The Kharghar police have registered a FIR against the accused and booked him under various sections of the IPC.

The FIR states that Desh Sharma and his wife had gone for an evening walk to Central Park. They reached near their building when a biker wearing a raincoat and helmet approached them claiming he was a cop. He asked Sharma to take off his chain saying he will wrap it in a cloth and give it back.
