On Monday evening, 26 excited IPL fans turned up at the Wankhede Stadium to watch the tussle between Mumbai Indians and Royal Challengers Bangalore. Instead, they discovered that their alternatively acquired tickets - from a so-called workers' quota sold to them by a man named Amrut - were forged. They then approached the Marine Drive police station and have registered a case against an unknown person. One of the victims, however, managed to take a picture of the accused and the police is now actively looking for him.
