The Mumbai Police recently discovered that the handle @mumbaipolice existed on Twitter and they don't know who is behind it!

In a long due move to go live on social media, Mumbai Police tried to make it big by launching its facebook page and twitter handle on Monday, December 14 during a seminar on cyber crime before it went downhill as they couldn't avail the @mumbaipolice twitter handle.

Why? That username is already taken and the cops don't know who took it!
