- Duped of Rs. 70 lakhs: Kajal Nishad has accused three individuals, including real estate developers Sarita Mantri and Sunil Mantri, as well as Shanti Narayan Rathi of Synergy Construction, of defrauding her of ₹70 lakh. The alleged fraud centers around a promised residential flat in Goregaon [East], which was later discovered to have a disputed title and she never got the possession. Nishad claims that between December 2015 and February 2016, she paid ₹46.60 lakh for the flat, but after making the payment, she found out that the ownership was contested. Despite attempts to settle the matter in 2021, where it was agreed that she would receive ₹85 lakh in total but only ₹15 lakh was paid, the remaining amount is still outstanding. The police have since registered an FIR against the accused under various sections of the Indian Penal Code for cheating and criminal breach of trust.
