On Thursday night, officials from Juhu police station, which is nearest to the restaurant, arrested the workers for illegally running business from a footpath and allegedly creating nuisance in the area. Arun Bhagat, senior inspector, Juhu police station said, “We have arrested a few men from Amar Juice Centre as they were found violating the law by running a business on footpath. We have fined them for the breach, as misuse of public roads creates traffic snarls.”
