On the night of 24-25 February, a Scorpio standing in an unclaimed condition was found outside Antilia on Pedder Road in South Mumbai. On the afternoon of February 25, the police recovered 20 gelatin sticks from the car. However, the investigation of this case was taken over by Sachin Vaze, posted in the Crime Branch. As the controversy escalated, NIA took up the task of investigating the matter. On March 5, the body of Scorpio's owner Mansukh Hiren was found.
