Accused in dual car registration scam says jailed policeman sought ₹25 crore as extortion money
Celebrity car designer Dilip Chhabria, who was arrested by the Mumbai Police in an alleged dual car registration scam in December 2020, has claimed in a letter addressed to the Maharashtra Chief Minister and Home Minister that his business associates and Sachin Vaze framed him in the case and demanded ₹25 crore as extortion money when the jailed former policeman headed the Crime Intelligence Unit (CIU). The police claimed that the accused’s company, DC Designs Pvt. Ltd, had allegedly taken loans from non-banking financial companies by posing as customers who wanted to purchase the company’s DC Avanti sports car. Three FIRs were filed against Mr. Chhabria: two by the CIU and one by the Economic Offences Wing. On May 17, Mr. Chhabria filed a police complaint, in which he named former business associates Kiran Kumar, and Sayed Afaaq; another complainant Indermal Ramani; policemen Mr. Vaze, Riyaz Kazi, and Prakash Howal; and comedian Kapil Sharma for conspiring to frame him in the case. The complaint was also sent to Mumbai Commissioner of Police Hemant Nagrale, and Additional Chief Secretary (Home) Manu Kumar Srivastava.
