The Mumbai Crime Branch has arrested Ganesh Shrikant Landge, a 31-year-old driver from Thane, after receiving intelligence about a plot to intimidate Bollywood personalities. Landge was apprehended at 1:15 am on November 14, 2026, along with two country-made pistols and 19 live cartridges in Agripada, Mumbai.
