Never had or even heard of anyone I know had any such issue in all these decades in mumbai. (had one close to this, on ride from JFK many years ago). I always thought that mumbai was the safest city in India (it is other cities you might have to be careful)
But world is changing...
i'm come across this many many times in mumbai....my clients travel to mumbai frequently & a number of them have reported similar issues....i've not come across it myself anywhere else....
i wouldn't call mumbai the safest city in india but it is generally safe....issues like these are bound to happen in big tourist cities where a few bad apples make everyone else look bad....
