It was proved that the businessman is a drug smuggler. He is being arrested. He has to come to Mumbai. At first, he did not want to believe it. But soon he was asked to look at the WhatsApp message. The businessman also saw a parcel in his name and a picture of the drugs ‘recovered’ from inside. He was told that if he did not want to come to Mumbai, he would have to remain under house arrest for at least three days.
