The distance is tentatively 24 kms. The complainant stated that as he could not cover the distance within ten minutes as directed, Mr Wadia abused him and also beat him up.

The driver, whose name is withheld by police, approached MRA Marg police station today and lodged a complaint against Mr Wadia. The officer said that police have registered a non-cognisable offence against Mr Wadia and are investigating further.
