According to ANC, in 2020, while driving OLA during the lockdown, he met one passenger who asked him to deliver a consignment from Mira Bhayander to Mumbai and paid him 5000 for one trip. He took that opportunity and started earning huge amounts on a daily basis. "He later joined the cartel and became their driver using his OLA cab." An officer said
The police found that he has good ratings on OLA, and they sought details of the passengers and where he had travelled to find the absconding accused in the case.
