NRI Mahesh Kukreja alleges that his brothers have framed murder charges to usurp business
A Sessions court has ordered an enquiry into an arrest warrant issued in a murder case, against NRI Mahesh Kukreja, which was turned into a red-corner notice when he last came to India in 1997. However, the Metropolitan Magistrate Court (MMC) that issued the arrest warrant has no record of it.
In the case that relates to a watchman’s murder in 2003, Kukreja has contended that his brothers have falsely alleged that he was associated with gangster Anees Ibrahim Kaskar. Dawood’s younger brother Anees played the role of coordinator in the ’93 blasts conspiracy.
Kukreja alleges that they got him involved in the case so that they could take over his business.
In September 2003, a watchman with the Kukreja Company, Vasudev Pardhi, was murdered by two unknown assailants. A Sessions court convicted two people in the case in March, 2006 and observed that it was a case of criminal conspiracy.
Kukreja and his elder brother Omprakash together handled a construction company in Chembur, but Omprakash was allegedly murdered by underworld gang members in 1995. But since Kukreja was in the US and could not come to India to manage the business after his brother’s death, his younger brothers usurped the business and took full charge of it.
The trial judge observed that there is a ‘serious anomaly’ in the MMC records and directed the Chief Metropolitan Magistrate to probe if the police had actually filed any application for issuance of warrant against Kukreja and if it was ordered by the MMC.
