The Hindu
Petitioners submit audio clips and videos to substantiate cheating charges against the self-styled antique dealer
The Crime Branch investigating the cheating case against Monson Mavunkal, the self-styled antique dealer and confidence trickster, on Thursday took the accused to Chitranjali Studio at Kakkanad here for collecting his voice samples for forensic examination.
The move assumes significance, since the petitioners have submitted a lot of audio clips and videos to substantiate cheating charges against the accused.
Later in the day, he was taken to his rented house at Kaloor for further evidence collection, with his three-day custody set to end on Thursday.

Former CM B.S. Yediyurappa had challenged the first information report registered on March 14, 2024, on the alleged incident that occurred on February 2, 2024, the chargesheet filed by the Criminal Investigation Department (CID), and the February 28, 2025, order of taking cognisance of offences afresh by the trial court.
