On October 2, Mumbai Police's Economic Offences Wing arrested actor Dino Morea as part of their probe into the Mithi River desilting scam. The investigation centers around alleged financial irregularities in contracts related to the desilting and rejuvenation of the Mithi River in Mumbai, which reportedly cost the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) ₹65.54 crore.

The probe also involves Ketan Kadam, who was arrested in 2025 and is considered a key focus of the investigation.
