A disgruntled security guard’s attempt to falsely implicate and harass his colleagues resulted in police personnel arriving in large numbers at Anand Nagar, Malad, to nab ‘heavily armed men from Kashmir’. When the personnel from the Dindoshi and Vanrai police stations reached the said location near Squatter’s Colony at Anand Nagar in Malad, they did find about 10 men from Kashmir and also found the guns and rifles.

When the detained men were questioned, the police came to know that they were working in the city as security guards specialising in the transport of cash and the weapons that were in their possession had valid licences. It turned out that the men from Kashmir were residing together in the same accommodation for several months and pooled money for the meals that were prepared in the house. The failure of one of the guards to pay contribution towards preparing food led to disagreement. The said guard left the common accommodation.
