Sambhal, June 28
Apparently inspired by Akshay Kumar-starrer Bollywood movie ‘Special 26’, 19 persons posing as CBI officers reached a sugar mill here to “extort” money, but they ran out of luck and 16 of them landed in jail due to timely intervention of the police.
Sixteen persons have been arrested for posing as CBI officers when they went to raid a sugar mill in the Asmoli area here, SP Yamuna Prasad said.
He said 19 persons, posing as CBI officers, reached the sugar mill on Thursday and claimed that there were certain discrepancies in adhering to pollution control norms besides some other lacunae and demanded Rs 15-20 lakh from the mill management. On suspecting a foul play, some mill staff informed the police, who arrested 16 of them while three managed to flee. ‘Special 26’, is a 2013 Indian heist film directed by Neeraj Pandey starring Akshay Kumar in the lead role. — PTI
