Cheung came to Delhi from the US a month ago and had started working with a private firm. The case was filed against Cheung and his father, Chi Cheung, on December 4 by Ranjeet Bindra, who is the co-owner of Bastian restaurant at Bandra.
According to the police, Cheung used to work at Bastian and was loved by many Bollywood celebrities. "In 2015, Cheung made an offer to Bindra to invest in popular restaurant franchises in Chicago and Los Angeles with the help of his father. Bindra invested $2,00,000 through multiple transactions," a police officer said.
A police officer said, "Cheung quit Bastian and went to Chicago, US in July 2019, saying his father passed away. However, he did not return to Mumbai. Later, he started ignored Bindra when he asked for his investment money. When Cheung returned to India last month, Bindra informed us and registered a case." Senior Police Inspector Gajanan Kadbule of Khar police said, "We sent our team to Delhi and arrested Cheung. He has been remanded to three days' police custody."

I have faith that the police and authorities will do what is necessary," said Bindra. Bollywood celebrities like Alia Bhatt, Tiger Shroff and Disha Patani used to frequent Bastian.
