In a multi-faceted crime, an unidentified person snuck out a police chargesheet submitted at the Esplanade Court in Fort, doctored it with fake stamp and signature and slunk the document back in the court after deleting some of the charges. The chargesheet was filed by the Azad Maidan police against advocate Charanjeet Chandrapal for attacking advocate Mahesh Vaswani inside the Bombay High Court’s bar room.

Senior PI of Azad Maidan police station Deepak Dhole has now appealed to the court seeking action in the matter, after Vaswani informed the court of the tampering. “The court asked me to file a reply in the matter which I have done,” said Dhole. As per records, on October 5 last year, Azad Maidan police registered the FIRs of lawyers Vaswani and Chandrapal.
