The Anti-Corruption Bureau of Thane has registered a forgery case against the Deputy Municipal Commissioner Manish Joshi and four others for allegedly creating fake documents against a lawyer’s complaint and “framing him”. According to the complainant, Advocate Rajesh Kakad, Shree Subrata Housing Society is an illegal building in the Tembhi Naka area of Thane, and a notice was given to him by the Municipal Corporation in 2010 regarding the illegal construction at this place. The advocate claimed that without any hearing or giving the complainant an opportunity to present his case, a case was registered against him under the MRTP Act using false affidavits and false documents.
Kakad has also alleged that there was a big financial transaction between the society and the concerned authorities. The ACB has also registered a case against Ward Officer of Kalwa Ward Committee Suresh Shivlal Rajput, Junior Engineer Ravindra Dattatray Kasar, Chief Administrative Officer Balu Hanumant Pichad, and Uthalsar Ward Committee Officer Gagan Singh Dan Singh Thapa. The cases were registered under relevant sections in the Thane Nagar police station on Friday, as per an order from the court. The ACB will probe the matter further and also examine the alleged bribery claims.
