New Delhi: The Economic Offences Wing of Delhi Police has registered an FIR under eight sections against former BharatPe managing director Ashneer Grover, his wife, and family members.
The FIR is for allegedly defrauding the company of Rs 81.28 crore. The sections include 468 (forgery for the purpose of cheating), 120B (punishment of criminal conspiracy) and 406 (punishment for criminal breach of trust), among others, a source told The New Indian Express (TNIE). The accusations against Grover and his family members also include illegitimate payments to the tune of Rs 7.6 crore to bogus HR consultants on the basis of 86 false and forged invoices and inflated and undue payments through passthrough vendors connected to the accused persons to the detriment of the complainant company.
BharatPe in a statement welcomed the registration of an FIR by the Economic Offences Wing of the Delhi Police in the Company’s complaint in relation to the criminal offences by Grover, his wife Madhuri Jain and other family members. “For the last 15 months, the Company has been facing a vicious and malicious campaign run by Grover against the Company, the board and its employees. The registration of the FIR is a step in the right direction which unearths various suspicious transactions made by the family for their personal pecuniary gains,” it said.
“This FIR will now enable Law enforcement agencies to investigate deeper into the criminality and bring the culprits to books. We have full faith in our country’s judicial and law enforcement systems and are optimistic that this case will reach its logical conclusion. We will continue to extend all possible cooperation to the authorities,” the company added, TNIE reported.
