A gang of five turned a reel life heist into a real life one by imitating Akshay Kumar's 2013 flick Special 26. Last Sunday, they entered a posh housing society in Bandra posing as Income Tax (I-T) officers, conducted a fake raid in the flat of a businessman and walked away with cash, jewellery and eight gold coins worth Rs 2.5 lakh.

The incident occurred when the unnamed businessman's elderly parents and a male servant were in the flat at St. Paul's Road, Bandra West. His father Ashok Mehra, 64, and his wife did not realise they'd been looted by the gang until Ashok narrated the incident to his son, who was not at home when all of this happened.
