A complainant reported that in January 2009, Tirkha published an advertisement inviting investments in a scheme. He offered double return through his travel business.
In July 2010, the complainant was called by the accused at Karol Bagh for a meeting where he was assured about earning huge profits on investments. Lured by the scheme, the complainant invested around Rs 22 lakh over a period of time.
The complainant later realised that accused hardly invested their money in travel business. No details of any investments were provided as promised. Accused person incorporated several companies and cheated several people to the tune of crore.
"Scrutiny of the bank accounts revealed that the accused Tarun Trikha received money in his personal account from the complainant Harsh Kumar and Rafiullah Ansari, but he could not give any justification for the same nor he could provide any documents for receiving the money in his personal account. Further, he did not return the money too," said OP Mishra, Joint CP EOW.
