Indore Police Book Two Men In Separate Alleged Fraud Cases
Police in Indore reported two separate cases involving alleged wrongdoing.
In the first case, Mohammad Salamuddin Barkati was accused of using false papers to present himself as the Shahar Qazi of Sanwer tehsil.
Officials said he hid facts and misused a court order.
Police registered a case after an inquiry by a government department.
In the second case, former bank manager Kumar Mayank was accused of taking Rs 15 lakh from Sunil Kumar Deshpande for an investment.
Police said the money was not invested as promised.
Instead, it was allegedly moved to another person’s bank account.
Both investigations are still continuing, and the allegations have not been established in court.
Sanwer police booked Mohammad Salamuddin Barkati over allegedly forged documents used to claim the Shahar Qazi post.
Officials alleged Barkati suppressed facts, gave false information and misused a court order.
An inquiry by the Backwards Classes and Minority Welfare Department found the submitted information allegedly false and contrary to regulations.
Former private bank manager Kumar Mayank was booked for allegedly diverting an investor’s Rs 15 lakh instead of investing it in a bank scheme.
Police said the money was allegedly transferred to associate Indar Singh Chauhan’s account after the cheque cleared in October 2021.
