A 62-year-old has had a tough time trying to lodge an FIR, after he was robbed of his gold chain worth Rs 60,000 by two people impersonating CID officers. Instead of lodging an FIR, he said, the Ghatkopar police and the Vinoba Bhave police at Kurla West, both claim the crime did not take place in their jurisdiction.

Jaynath Chaubey claimed he was turned away thrice by both police stations. He said, "Both police stations' personnel told me the area isn't in their jurisdiction." According to Chaubey, on December 12 around 2:30 pm, he was walking near the Phoenix mall on LBS Road, when somebody from behind approached him impersonating a CID officer and said, "CID ke sahab bula rahe hai."
