The Central Bureau of Investigation on Thursday filed charge
sheets before a Pune Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act
against seven people for allegedly aiding Abdul Karim Telgi, prime
accused in the
multi-crore fake stamp paper scam.
In the charge sheet, filed before the special judge court,
MCOCA provisions have been invoked against police inspectors Dutta
Ghule and Anil Deshmukh (Thane Crime Branch) H M Vichare (Mumbai
Crime Branch) and R M Pawar(Nasik Crime Branch).
"The CBI investigation revealed several discrepancies in the
investigation conducted by the state police and it also found the
complicity of several police officers in abetting and aiding the
organised crime syndicate of Telgi," a CBI release said in New
Delhi.
Investigations revealed that after conspiring with Telgi, these
police officials diverted the cases towards some unconnected
people so that the 'fake business' could flourish.
Telgi gang member, like Sabbir Ahmad, Mustaq Ahmad Sheikh and
Jai Kishan Singh, have also been charge sheeted in the case.
