Mumbai: 21-year-old Shoeb Zuber Doodhwala was nabbed on Monday near Bharatmata Cinema while trying his luck with other people's ATM cards. He had said he found the cards discarded near a bus stop in Mahim.
It turns out that one of the debit cards recovered from the accused arrested for trying to withdraw cash using ATM cards that were not his own, had the master blaster's name on it.
One of the cards was in Sachin Tendulkar's name, cops realised, but investigations revealed that it was a dummy issued by the bank for demonstration purposes.
Cops recovered four debit cards from him, issued by ING Vyasa, ICICI and Kotak Mahindra banks. "Tendulkar's name was printed on the Kotak Mahindra card. But bank officials said it was a dummy used for educational purpose at its ATM centres," said Senior PI Vikram Patil.
Cops also said that the Rs. 8,000 recovered from Shoeb was his own. "The money he was carrying was his own. Therefore, he has only been arrested on the charge of forging a driving licence," Patil added. Cops had found that Shoeb had a fake licence, with his photo and details pasted on the original.
A bank official helping out with enquiry said, "After the incident, we were immediately sent to the police station to check the debit cards. We were relieved to find that it was a demonstration card used for educational purposes."
