Bollywood Stars in Fraud Scandal: Shreyas Talpade and Alok Nath Named in FIR
Mumbai - A shocking revelation has surfaced as Bollywood actors Shreyas Talpade and Alok Nath have been named among 13 accused in a fraud case filed at Murthal police station in Haryana. The allegations include cheating, criminal breach of trust, and fraudulent property transfer. This case revolves around an investment scam allegedly orchestrated by the Human Welfare Credit Cooperative Society.
The Alleged Scam
The cooperative society, registered under the Multi-State Cooperative Society Act, 2002, reportedly lured investors with promises of high returns on fixed and recurring deposits. Using a multi-level marketing approach, the society incentivized agents to bring in more investors. Thousands of unsuspecting individuals invested significant amounts, only to find their funds misappropriated.
Victims Speak Out
One of the complainants, Vipul Antil, claims to have invested ₹33 lakh, while his brother deposited over ₹4 crore collected from friends and family. The society operated over 250 service centers, offering various services such as ambulance units and mobile ATMs, to build trust among investors. However, payments were delayed, agent incentives were stopped, and offices were eventually shut down.
Investigation Underway
Authorities are now investigating the alleged roles of Shreyas Talpade and Alok Nath. While the exact nature of their involvement remains unclear, their association with such a scandal has sent shockwaves through the Bollywood industry. As the investigation progresses, the public eagerly awaits answers and justice for the victims of this large-scale financial fraud.
