An investigation into the deadly Ghatkopar hoarding collapse revealed that accused Arshad Khan received Rs 1 crore from Ego Media Pvt Ltd to secure approval for the billboard. The Special Investigation Team (SIT) presented this information to the sessions court during Khan’s pre-arrest bail plea. Khan, now absconding, is alleged to have taken the money from Ego Media directors Bhavesh Bhinde and Janhvi Marathe, and further investigations are underway into his business ties with suspended IPS officer Quaiser Khalid’s wife. The court reserved its order for August 12.
