Why you must name Bhagtani's Employees in FIR
22/09/2017, Mumbai: Recently, I wrote an article about the need to name & shame Bhagtani's employees in case you are a victim of the Riyo, Savannah, Sapphire and Serenity scams. So let me refresh your memory with the images of some prominent employees in Bhagtanis office -- people with whom many of you interacted, and then you got scammed.

Besides these, there are Abhishek Varma, Indranil Das, Dilip Ochani, Vijit Ghosh, Sunil Vaswani, Mukesh Tiwari, Sagar Malwade, Uttkarsh Gandhi, Yogita Sakpal, and Esther, and several others.
Am I being petty-minded, vengeful or vexatious? Would it be morally wrong to name them in your FIR? The emphatic answer is, NO. So, why am I asking you to name these people while registering your FIR with Santacruz police station?
THE REASONS ARE:
1) POLICE STATEMENT REQUIRES YOU TO GIVE EXACT DETAILS. Before the police register a First Information Report (FIR), they will take down your statement. A police statement is a datewise and precise reconstruction of the entire dealing between you and the persons being accused. A police statement sounds a bit like this: "I read an advertisement in July 2013, and went to the office of Accused no. 1 (Dipesh Bhagtani) and Accused no. 2 (Lakshman Bhagtani). In the office, I met one Mr Sunil Vaswani, who gave me a brochure to read, and a form to fill up. On my next visit to the office of Accused no. 1 and 2, I was asked to meet Accused no. 3 (Mr Upkar Anand). Accused no. 3 told me that if I paid a smaller booking amount (10% of total consideration), then I would have to pay a higher consideration for the flat i.e. Rs 65 lakhs, whereas, if I was willing to pay a bigger booking amount (40% of the consideration amount) at the time of booking, I would have to pay a lower price for the flat i.e. Rs 62 lakh. Although I argued that the maximum booking amount permissible under MOFA Act is 20%, Accused no. 3 convinced me that our dealings were exempted from MOFA. Convinced by his arguments, I paid 40% of the consideration amount as booking advance on 01/09/2013..." In a police statement, you are required to narrate the names, designations and contact details of the persons you met, whose various statements and dealings with you led you into your present predicament. The police "writer" will painstakingly type your story in Marathi. The FIR is based on this statement.
2) WITHOUT MENTIONING THE NAMES OF EMPLOYEES, YOUR STORY BEFORE THE POLICE BECOMES WEAK. Most flat buyers have never met the Bhagtanis, and even the few who have met them, barely spent 5% of their total amount of time with them. Over 95% of your time was spent interacting with employees, and your decisions were based on their teamwork of the employees. For example, in the words of one investor: "Khusbhoo Khanna is their Vice President of Sales. She aggressively peddled their toxic projects alongwith Upkar Anand and convinced people that it would take only another 3-4 months to get all approvals. She is also their last line of defence, before the Bhagtani brothers, if the Customer Sales Managers cannot handle 'explanations' as to why the projects are not taking off. RK Kamath and Vinay Shukla are from Jaycee 'Customer Relations' Team. They threaten defamation lawsuits against anyone who wants to disclose their dubious business tactics. Upkar Anand was VP as well, but, believe he left Jaycee and started his own company: http://amaragroup.co.in/our-leaders/ He now refuses to acknowledge any investors he had sold projects too and cannot 'recall' any of his work at Jaycee." If interrogated about your case, the Bhagtanis may say, quite factually, that they have never met you in their whole life! Unless the employees are mentioned as accused no. 3, 4, 5 etc, the police investigation will not be possible, and your complaint will not result in an FIR; it will be dismissed as "unsubstantiated" due to lack of substance and evidence, because there will be nobody to interrogate. The employees are the connecting thread between you and the Bhagtanis!
3) THE POLICE WILL NEED EMPLOYEES TO PLAY THE ROLE OF "APPROVER"..Employees know the day-to-day working and the inside story of Bhagtani's overall organization, spanning various companies like Jaycee Homes, JVPD Properties, MD Devcon, etc. If made co-accused, they will spill the beans during police interrogation. If some employees offer to become approvers i.e. disclose the inside story to the police in return for reduced prison sentences, the true story will come out and your money may be recovered.
4) EMPLOYEES ARE NOT INNOCENT. Every adult is legally responsible for everything that he/she does, whether it is for a salary or for personal reasons. All the employees would have known that their actions deprived you of your life savings and your legal rights. Even assuming that their individual acts may not necessarily be a crime, they collectively add up to cheating, breach of trust, etc. These employees made a career out of systematic cheating, lying and deceiving. The present FIR against the Bhagtanis (CR no. 399 of 2017) was registered under IPC section 420 (cheating and dishonestly inducing delivery of property) read with section 34 (Acts done by several persons in furtherance of common intention). These sections are also applicable to many of their employees.
5) ORGANIZED CRIME CANNOT BE CONDUCTED WITHOUT EMPLOYEES. When you look at the big picture, it becomes evident that the Bhagtanis' objective to collect huge amounts of money on the pretext of flats. The enormous scale of their day-to-day activities would not be possible without employees. Therefore, many (if not all) of the employees are conspirators in a large-scale financial scam.
