While there are no leads on the ‘suspicious’ drone that put the city on alert on Tuesday, three people who work in a production house have been arrested for flying a drone in Charkop. Two of them were flying the drone for an upcoming shoot. The trio has been identified as Rahul Jaiswal (24), Rana Subhash Singh (25) and Vidhichandra Jaiswal (45), who is the owner of the drone.


According crime branch sources, Rahul and Subhash were flying the drone in Charkop without permission for the last several days. A local resident had tweeted to Mumbai police commissioner regarding the same after which, the commissioner asked for an immediate investigation into the matter. Drones are banned in the city.
