The Hindu
He stayed for 8 months, escaped through bathroom window
The Kharghar police are on the lookout for a 43-year-old man who along with his 12-year-old son escaped from the bathroom window of a hotel in July after staying for eight months and running up a bill of ₹25 lakh. The accused, Murali Kamath, checked into the hotel in Kharghar on November 23, 2020, and told the owner that he was a VFX programmer in the film industry. He said he stayed in Andheri and planned to purchase a theme park in Khopoli. “He booked one super deluxe room for his stay and another one for meetings. He promised to pay the deposit after a month and submitted his passport as surety,” a police officer said. The police filed an FIR in August after a preliminary investigation.More Related News
