Pintoo was nabbed by the police this morning from by Borivali railway police. Police have filed a case of attempt to murder against him. Pintoo was produced before a Borivali court today and sent to police remand till February 7.
The police also disclosed a surprising fact – the girl had been attacked with acid on two previous occasions also. However, in those cases, the police could not nab the attackers.
