Mumbai: The Mumbai Police on Monday filed an FIR (FIR) against the former Punjab and Maharashtra Co-operative Bank (PMC) bank's former management and promoters of HDIL. The case will be investigated by a Special Investigation Team (SIT).

The Economic Offenses Wing (EOW) of the city police has filed a case of forgery, fraud and criminal conspiracy against the officers based on the complaint of the Reserve Bank-appointed administrator.
