During the period, forged documents were presented as genuine before the Thane district court to obtain bail for some persons arrested in a case registered under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act at the Kalachowkie police station in Mumbai, an official from Thane Nagar police station said.

"It is suspected that more than one person may have conspired in preparing and submitting the forged documents to mislead the court and facilitate the release of the accused on bail," he said without giving details of the case.

Based on a complaint by a team member of the Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS), Thane unit, the police here registered the FIR on January 1 under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita sections for cheating and forgery, the official said.
