Mumbai: Mazgaon resident convicted for using illegal ‘Police, Vidhan Bhavan’ stickers on Car

A city magistrate court has convicted a 21-year-old resident of Mazgaon for affixing ‘Police’ and ‘Vibhan Bhavan’ stickers on his Omni car, despite not being a public servant. Initially denying the offense, the individual later changed his plea to guilty.
Conviction under Section 171 of the Indian Penal Code
The court found the accused guilty under Section 171 of the Indian Penal Code, which pertains to wearing garb or carrying tokens used by public servants with fraudulent intent. While the offense carries a maximum punishment of three months imprisonment and a fine, the judge took into consideration that the accused had no criminal history and was a first-time offender. As a result, the court sentenced him to imprisonment till the rising of the court.
Alert Citizen’s Report Leads to Police Action
The incident came to light when an alert citizen reported Ubed Mistry’s Omni car to the Marine Drive Police Station. The vehicle was found parked near Hotel Marine Plaza, displaying a ‘Vidhan Bhavan’ sticker on the four-wheeler and an English ‘Police’ sticker on the dashboard against a yellow background. The informant presented this evidence before the court.
Prosecution Seeks Strict Punishment
The prosecution sought stringent punishment for the accused, emphasizing the gravity of the offense. Although an independent witness was not examined due to the accused pleading guilty, the court determined that the prosecution had successfully proven the offense.
Sentencing Based on Lack of Criminal Antecedents
Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate KS Zanwar of the Esplanade court ruled that the accused should be punished for his actions. However, considering his clean record and absence of prior criminal involvement, the court opted for a sentence of simple imprisonment till the rising of the court.

When their bike stalled near Bhagwan Medical, they pushed it to a nearby repair shop. Exhausted and sweating, Kaustubh stepped into a dark corner near Rohit Wine Shop.
There, he encountered a 35-year-old drunk man urinating in public. When Kaustubh questioned the man’s behaviour, the man became aggressive and slapped him. An argument followed, but the drunk individual left shortly after, only to return with around 15 men, some reportedly under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
The group surrounded Kaustubh, verbally abused him, and then began beating him. One man smashed an empty beer bottle on Kaustubh’s head during the attack, as reported. Bleeding and injured, Kaustubh tried to fight back, but was overwhelmed by the mob. The attackers fled the scene after the assault.
This disturbing incident has sparked concern among residents, who are urging the Mahatma Phule Police to take swift and strict action. Citizens are demanding that police immediately check CCTV footage from the surrounding area, identify the attackers, and ensure their arrest without delay.
