By Dheeraj Fartode Shocking allegations of misconduct have emerged against a police officer in Nagpur City Police. The officer is accused of abusive and degrading behaviour, particularly targeting accused in Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act. Sources claim that the senior officer arrives at the police station and calls the accused into a separate room, where the officer not only hurls abuse at the accused but also spits at their face. Later, the officer allegedly kicks the accused in the private parts. In some incidents, when a couple approached a police station in Nagpur to file a complaint following a domestic dispute, the police sent a proposal for preventive action to the officer. However, instead of handling the matter professionally, the officer allegedly made the man sit down, then kicked him in the private parts and leave him in pain and humiliation.

| Enforcement Directorate ED |
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has procured documents related to multi-crore Metrovision Buildcon Company scam from the City police and started investigation. The agency is probing the money laundering angle in the case, sources claimed.
The First Information Report (FIR) in the case was registered in November last year after which DCP (Zone I) Nurool Hasan had formed a Special Investigation Team (SIT). The police have arrested 16 fraudsters so far for duping more than 6,000 investors across the country.
Sources in ED informed that a copy of FIR and other documents related to the scam were procured for the probe. The focus of the ED would be on the money laundering angle. After examining the money trail, the ED would also investigate whether the money was routed to any foreign countries or shell companies.
A police official informed that 16 accused were arrested by the SIT and recovered cash of over Rs three crore from the accused persons. Mastermind Vijay Ramdas Gurnule (39), Sunil alias Sonu Gajanan Shrikhande (28), Ashok Gangadhar Dupare (39); Gyaneshwar Bawne, Jeevan Das Anandrao Dandare (52), Ramesh Suraj Lal Bisen (38), Atul Yuvraj Meshram (29), Avinash Mahadevrao Mahadole (38), Raju Nagorao Mohurle (48), Shrikant Keshav Nikure (24), Devendra Bhimrao Gajbhiye (34), Vikram Laxman Nayak and others have been arrested so far by the SIT.
The police have recovered Rs 11.22 lakh from Shrikhande; Rs 48 lakh from Amravati relative of Gurnule; Rs seven lakh from primary teacher Tanmay Jadhav; Rs 13 lakh from advisor of the company Dupare; Rs 68.79 lakh cash from accused Shrikhande’s brother; Rs 12.86 lakh cash from Gurnule's house and so on.
The investigators are awaiting for the forensic audit of the transactions documented in the Money Trade software of the company. The report is expected to come next month after which the police would raid houses of the beneficiaries.
It may be mentioned that the company was charging Rs 3,000/- to each investor to allot an identification (ID) in the company’s software. The profit was given to the customers on his IDs.
Mastermind Gurnule was also opening a lucky draw every month at a three star hotel in Nagpur. He was used to gift cars, bikes, computers, laptops, smart TVs, fridges, washing machines and expensive items to those who had invested in his schemes. This was the modus operandi of the scamsters to attract more investors in the company. Vijay Gurnule and Devendra Gajbhiye's multi-level marketing fund was so popular that they managed to spread their network across the country. The company had defrauded more than 6,000 investors across the country by promising huge returns.
