 The man who arrived in  white coloured car was reportedly seen in the area for some time. When the shopkeeper  handed over the Rs 500 note given by the stranger to others in the evening, it came to light that it was xeroxed  paper. Incidentally, the man had made purchases only with women traders and fish sellers  thus making them his easy target.

Kota police  too visited the spot on getting information and have confirmed that the  notes given by the stranger were fake.

Though footages recorded in CC Cameras of some shops in the vicinity were checked, the stranger has not been located in any of the footage.
