Mumbai: 3 cabbies rig app, fleece passengers from airport

MUMBAI: The crime branch arrested three drivers of a ride-sharing company who allegedly tampered with the company’s app which allowed them to charge extra and dupe passengers travelling from the city international airport.
Police said the main accused misused the app for six months and had allegedly shared it with at least 40 other drivers of the company.
Acting on a tip off, the crime branch sent dummy customers on Sunday and arrested the three drivers.
Police inspector Vinayak Meher refused to divulge their names as it would hamper the probe and alert other drivers misusing the app.
