Both have been asked to appear before the investigating officer on Saturday, September 28, 2024 to provide statements.

This comes after Advocate Amit Vyas filed a complaint, which accused BookMyShow of facilitating the black marketing of tickets for the highly anticipated concert of British band Coldplay scheduled to be held from January 19 to 21, 2025, at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai.

The EOW already recorded Vyas’ statement and has even identified several brokers who were involved in the alleged ticket scalping, according to the report, which added that further investigations are already underway and more individuals may be summoned.
