Vilas Gangawane,senior police inspector from Marine Drive police station, said told Hindustan Times, "We got an information that four riders are performing stunts at the sea face. They were not just risking their own lives, but were posing a threat to those sitting at Marine Drive too. We did a nakabandi near Islam Gymkhana and caught two of them."
While the two were caught, other two ran away leaving their bikes behind. The accused Mohommad and Jhedh claimed they were inspired by the John Abraham starrer 'Dhoom' and were performing stunts to impress girls at the promenade.
They have been booked under sections 279 (rash driving or riding on a public way) and 336 (act endangering life or personal safety of others) of the Indian Penal Code.
The two arrested accused were released on bail, while the Police is on the lookout for the other two.
