The Delhi High Court on June 1 refused to stay, at this stage, an investigation against BharatPe co-founder and former CEO Ashneer Grover, and his wife Madhuri Jain Grover, in a case of an alleged ₹81-crore fraud based on a complaint lodged by the fintech unicorn.
Justice Anup Jairam Bhambhani also declined to direct the investigating officer to give an advance notice to the duo if he wanted their custody and asked them to file an anticipatory bail instead.
The Judge issued notice on the petition by Mr. Grover and his wife seeking to quash the FIR registered by the Economic Offences Wing (EOW) of the Delhi police and asked the investigating agency as well as complainant BharatPe to state their stand.
