The accident, which took place in Kalyani Nagar, hit national headlines due to efforts made to get the juvenile off the hook, resulting in the arrest of several persons, including his father and grandfather. As per police, Mushtaq Momin (45), who runs a real estate agency in Kondhwa, filed a complaint alleging the father-son duo, who are into the real estate business, and another individual failed to pay him commission amounting to Rs 1.32 crore in lieu of gaining possession of a plot.
An FIR was registered against the duo and their associate identified as Jaspritsingh Rajpal under Indian Penal Code (IPC) sections 420 (cheating), 406 (criminal breach of trust), 504 and 506 (criminal intimidation), 120B (criminal conspiracy) and 392 (robbery), the official said. «The accused had approached Momin to assist in acquiring possession of disputed land in Kondhwa, offering him Rs 1.5 crore as remuneration. The complainant was given Rs 18 lakh as advance and was promised the remaining amount on completion of the deal. After Momin successfully negotiated with the plot owners and secured possession of the land, the accused began dilly dallying on paying the rest of the amount,» he said.
