On the way, near Hindu Rao Hospital, the said money was robbed from the car while Pawan Kumar was changing the BMW's flat tyre. But when the driver was examined, it seemed that he had some connivance in the incident, the official said.
Accordingly, based on the complainant's statement, the police registered an FIR under section 408 (Criminal breach of trust by clerk or servant) of the Indian Penal Code at the Civil Lines police station.
The DCP said that during examination of the suspect, it was found that he was repeatedly changing the sequence of events while narrating the incident.
