visible on the first day of his remand to the crime branch. His occasional smile had worry rather than the quiet confidence he earlier exuded.
Agrawal, however, told cops that he was still trudging along with the aim of fulfiling the promises he had made to investors at Kalamna Market Urban Credit Co-operative Society and Mahadeo Land Developers.
Agrawal, seated in the chamber of investigating officer S S Kudre of economic offences wing, said that he had no qualms about the ordinary ‘dal chawal’ that was being served to him. His oft-repeated line that the “Income Tax department is to be blamed for the present situation” was still there on his lips. But it seemed that his wife’s ill-health was tormenting him.
Kudre said that “In a day’s time, we have managed to come across some crucial documents that suggested that Agrawal had purchased 22 plots near Nagpur on behalf of Yuva Chaitanya Urban Credit Co-operative Society Limited. We are not sure but the price of these lands might be around Rs 200 crore,” said Kudre.
10 personnel, including two sub-inspectors, have been assigned a special job. While one police officer will check bank documents, another will scrutinise property papers. Police squads smaller in number have also been formed to ascertain facts about the property owned by Agrawal in different regions. Cops claimed that Agrawal was co-operating with the investigators.
Kudre said, “We have written to all the sub-registrars, alerting them about the ongoing probe. They have been asked not to deal in any of the disputed properties. Around 15 bank accounts have also been sealed by the investigating agency,” he said. Agrawal’s two more bank accounts in Kalamna Urban Credit Co-operative Bank have been sealed.
Kudre said that police personnel will soon visit the Income Tax department to conduct further investigations.
