Fake PMO ID, a ‘worthy cause’ and bid to impress family: What Rohan Parikh told cops · indianexpress.com

They say he allegedly used a fake identity card linked to the Prime Minister’s Office.

Parikh reportedly told police that he wanted his family to think he worked for the PMO.

He also wanted to seem involved in a good or “worthy” cause.
