According to the police, Sections 3(1)(ii), 3(2) and 3(4) of MCOCA have been added to DCB CID CR No. 143/26 following approval from the competent authority on October 27, 2026.

The Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act, 1999, is a stringent law designed to tackle organised criminal activity. Its provisions can be invoked when the legal requirements concerning organised crime are met.

The sections added in this case include provisions dealing with organised crime and liability connected to its commission and support. Their application can have significant implications for the investigation and prosecution. The allegations against the accused will be examined through the legal process.
