The car was stolen after a minute of parking Ruhan reached Dadar's famous 'Bastian' club with his friends at 2 pm on 27th October. Here he gave the car to the club valet to park. The valet parked the car in the basement. Barely a minute after parking the car, two people in a jeep reached the basement. By hacking, he opened the car and ran away. The entire incident was captured on CCTV.

Just a minute later, a man got down from the jeep and stole Ruhan's car and fled.
After this, when the club closed at 4 am, Ruhan asked the valet to fetch his car and learned that his car was not in the basement. After examining the CCTV footage, it was found that the car was stolen.
Police registered a case after investigation Ruhan's lawyer Ali Kashif Khan Deshmukh said the Shivaji Park police registered a case soon after the investigation. The police are now trying to trace the accused through all the CCTVs installed on the roads.
Questions arose over security vulnerabilities The lawyer also raised questions about security lapses at the club and restaurants staying open beyond scheduled hours. Along with this, he also called the open serving of liquor as a violation of the law. He said that the matter will now be taken to the High Court.
