The Economic Offences Wing (EOW) of the Mumbai police looking for suspended MD of PMC Bank, Joy Thomas, all over the city, found out later that they had been chasing an auto driver instead. Joy's son had apparently given the police a wrong number of his father, sending them on a wild goose chase.

"The number of the PMC MD shared with us was incorrect. We found that an auto driver uses it. As he was ferrying passengers around the city, we were getting different locations," said an officer from the EOW.
