Panaji: Five youths from Haryana and Delhi were arrested for misusing red beacon car in Goa, where they came holidaying to usher in the New Year, police said on Tuesday.
The youths--Bhavesh Yadav, Yatendra Rao, Siddharth Yadav (from Delhi) Gautam Rathod and Hariom Khowa -- were arrested here yesterday by Anjuna police, which impounded the Haryana registered car on which the beacon was installed, a senior official said.
"Bhavesh Yadav claimed to be a Member of Legislative Assembly but failed to produce proof," the officer said.
During investigations, the youths, however, confessed that they were impersonating as VVIPs to get clearance on roads.
