A complaint has been filed against two people in Navi Mumbai, Maharashtra, for allegedly causing a businessman to lose Rs 28.53 lakh in a light diesel oil supply scam, according to police sources on Sunday.
According to a police complaint filed by the 31-year-old businessman, during a period of non-production at his chemical company in Taloja, a former employee and a vendor worked together to obtain light diesel oil for the company without necessary licence.
The oil obtained through this unauthorised method was later sold, resulting in considerable financial benefits for the accused and a loss of Rs 28,53,076 to the businessman`s Nashik-based organisation, according to a Taloja police official.
The alleged fraudulent operations occurred between March 2022 and September 2023, according to the businessman.
Based on the complaint, officials filed a case against the former employee and the vendor on Saturday under sections 420 (cheating) and 406 (criminal breach of trust) of the Indian Penal Code and notified the police.
