Not only this, the accused had also bought oil for the vehicle which was sold seven years ago. During interrogation, he confessed to having committed the crime. The accused driver said that in the year 2022, he had taken these cards from Farhan Akhtar's former driver and since then he used to swipe the cards at S.V. Road petrol pump near Bandra Lake.
