Mumbai, Oct 1 (PTI) A man has been arrested here for allegedly selling off rented vehicles, police said on Tuesday.

Akash Brijesh Singh, the accused, sold at least 28 vehicles including cars, and 26 of them have been recovered, said an official.

Satyajit Inder Rathod, a resident of Malad, claimed in his complaint to police that Singh approached him in August saying he needed some cars and motorbikes for a film shoot.
