Ahmedabad - A significant cheating scandal has surfaced in the city as betrayal and fraud appear to be on the rise. A complaint has been filed at the Vastrapur police station, alleging a cheating sum of Rs 24.20 lakh. The accused were involved in writing the commission money of other customers in the name of a family company. The police are investigating further upon registering the case.
Jagdish Bhagat, working as the Assistant Vice President of Finance for Gujarat State at Reliance Jio Infocomm Limited, lodged the complaint. The company is engaged in providing internet services by selling SIM cards and internet connections. Lalit Tejumal had been working as the Gujarat Enterprise Sales Head, and Amit Kumar Sarkar was the Channel Partner Head in the company.
On 30th December 2021, Uttam Solutions was verified according to the company's norms and was appointed as a distributor. A written agreement was signed between Junisha Sachdeva, owner of Uttam Solutions, and the company.
The embezzlement surfaced when it was discovered that Lalit Lakhwani, the Gujarat Enterprise Sales Head, had conspired with his sister-in-law, Junisha Sachdeva, to form Uttam Solutions in Ahmedabad, Gujarat. Previously, the business was conducted directly by employees with customers, and the commission was received by the customers until 2023.
However, Lakhwani and Sarkar collaborated to present the business as found by Uttam Solutions Company, thereby betraying and cheating their employer and obtaining an illegal commission. This unscrupulous act has now triggered legal consequences.
Based on the complaint, the police have registered a case and initiated a thorough investigation into the matter. The incident adds to the growing concern about the increase in fraudulent activities within the city. Authorities are expected to take strict action, and further details will be revealed as the investigation progresses.
