PUNE: Police have made the first arrest from Thane in reference to a housing venture in Hinjewadi that came up on a nil.83 hectare land the Enforcement Directorate (ED) had hooked up in a cash laundering case in 2013.
Sajid Ibrahim Varekar, the suspect arrested on Monday, held an influence of legal professional for the 14 authentic land homeowners and offered the land to Mumbai-based businessman Sayyed Mohammad Masood, who's facing an alleged money-laundering fee. Despite the ED’s attachment, Masood had accomplished a fresh energy of legal professional in favour of Varekar for dealing with the land.
Varekar subsequently offered the land to Sahil Realtors, which, in flip, offered it to the Hindavi Swarajya Corporation Private Limited, a company shaped by over 100 tool pros. The corporate went directly to broaden the Scrum Utkarsh housing cooperative venture comprising 140 flats in three constructions.
The ED’s first knowledge document mentioned that officials from the sub-registrar’s workplaces in Paud, Mulshi and Mulshi-2 allegedly connived with the suspects to make dishonest or fraudulent execution of deeds of transfer related to the land.
In January, the ED had registered an FIR with the Hinjewadi police and issued notices of eviction to no less than 85 households of tool pros dwelling in the venture. For now, a establishment is in operation in connection to the venture.
The Pune police to begin with treated the case after the registration of the FIR. The case papers were later transferred to the office of assistant commissioner of police (Wakad) Shridhar Jadhav below the Pimpri Chnchwad police commissionerate that came into life from August 15.
“The Thane police have arrested Varekar in a Rs50 lakh extortion case. We took his custody around 5.10pm on Monday after his remand in the extortion case there were given over,” Jadhav informed TOI. “We are investigating how he had solid and fabricated paperwork related to the land. We may also investigate how the land was once in the end offered to the housing cooperative,” he added.
The police produced Varekar before additional periods pass judgement on K D Vadane here on Tuesday. Additional public prosecutor Premkumar Agarwal moved a document on behalf of investigating officer ACP Jadhav, looking for Varekar’s remand in police custody for seven days. After the hearing, the court ordered Varekar’s remand in police custody till December 7.
The police document mentioned that Varekar’s custodial remand was once needed as he had played a key function in serving to Masood to eliminate the land bought from price range raised thru cash laundering. “Masood and Varekar are residents of Mumbai and Thane, respectively. Yet, Masood accomplished an influence of legal professional in favour of Varekar in Noida, Uttar Pradesh. The investigators wish to identify the explanation at the back of this,” it mentioned.
“The investigators wish to identify Varekar’s dating with the partners in Sahil Realtors and the amount of deal he had struck with the company. The police are organising Varekar’s antecedents in the wake of reports about his function in a equivalent housing venture case registered by the Maharashtra Housing and Development Authority police station in Borivli,” the document mentioned.
Hindavi Swarajya’s office-bearer Pravin Gurav informed TOI, “I'm unaware about Varekar’s arrest. But if that has took place in terms of our case, it’s a positive construction. I have complete religion in our investigating businesses and judiciary. The truth will be triumphant finally.”
