Special Public Prosecutor Ravi Goenka, a member of the controversial Bombay Presidency Radio Club (BPRC), is literally in the eye of a storm. Days after he alleged that the committee members of the club were involved in "massive corruption and embezzlement of funds" and mid-day reported the matter on February 27, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs appointed sleuths of the Serious Fraud Investigation Office, a government agency, to investigate the case. Not only this, after Justice (retd) D K Deshmukh issued an inquiry report against him, Goenka challenged it in the Bombay High Court, which set it aside and appointed justice (retired) S J Vazifdar as the new inquiry officer in the case.

The letter of the Ministry of Corporate Affairs dated March 28 reads that the "complaint regarding the huge malpractices and irregularities against the subject company has been forwarded to the Registrar of Companies, Mumbai, for further action".
