A woman from Indonesia sent her friend and the Pali police on a wild goose chase after she alleged that she had been kidnapped, only for the cops to discover 24 hours later that she had never come to India.

A software engineer from Pune informed the cops that his friend — an Indonesian national, had been misdirected by a cab driver and taken to Raigad. After frantic search operations, the cops found out that she had lied to her friend to avoid him.
