The Sewree Metropolitan Court on Tuesday placed Mihir Shah, the main accused in the Worli hit-and-run case, in judicial custody for 14 days. The police are still searching for the missing front number plate and have not yet included charges related to drinking and driving, pending the forensic analysis of the blood report. Authorities said they are seeking custody of Shah to determine who advised him to get his haircut.

“He had got his hair cut for Rs 100. We have recorded the statement of the barber and are yet to find out who advised him to get his hair cut to mislead the police,” said the police in court.
