PANAJI: A North Goa court has rejected the anticipatory bail application of Shyam Dnyaneshwar Palkar, allegedly involved in a case registered at the Porvorim police station of cheating a doctor of Rs 53 lakh. The court directed the accused to surrender before the Porvorim police station within 24 hours and cooperate with police investigation.
In his complaint, Dr Vikas Naik stated that he was dishonestly induced to part with Rs 53 lakh by the prime accused, Taslim Arif Mohammed, proprietor of A&M Realtors & Developers, Santa Cruz, and Jai Lotlikar, resident of Kadamba Plateau, for developing survey number 234/1 in Socorro, Porvorim, and another property at Anjuna. Naik said that the duo had failed to invest the money into any project or property and had also failed to return his money.
