Court Rejects Bail Plea of Shravan Rao's Wife in Fraud Case

Court Rejects Bail Plea of Shravan Rao's Wife in Fraud Case

A local court denied anticipatory bail to Swathy Rao, the wife of Shravan Rao, who is accused of cheating a company out of Rs 6.5 crore.

The case involves a deal where the company, Akhand Infratech, paid for iron ore that was never delivered.

Rao allegedly proposed the deal.

The complainant claims that when a refund was demanded, Rs 50 lakh was transferred from Acore's account.

Swathy Rao was listed as an accused and sought bail.

The court rejected her plea, citing the need for investigation and the absconding status of other suspects.

Swathy claims she had no stake in the accused company.
