A local police team is in Mumbai after the registration of a case against makers of web series “Mirzapur” for allegedly outraging religious sentiments and provoking the breach of peace, a senior official said on Friday.

Mirzapur Range IG Piyush Kumar told PTI that in the FIR lodged on January 17, it has been alleged that the web series tried to malign the image of Mirzapur, which is a historic and religious place, having no relation with crime as shown in it.
