After online shopping frauds, fake loan calls/SMS, ATM/Debit cards frauds, KBC lottery scam, international call frauds, now scamsters have come up with a new method to dupe innocent people. The latest online fraud that is doing the rounds is ‘non-payment of electricity bill’.
Bombay HC reserved its order for Friday on the petitions filed by Nawab Malik and Anil Deshmukh seeking permission to cast their votes in the June 20 Maharashtra MLC elections.
Maharashtra's former home minister Anil Deshmukh, who is currently in jail on money laundering charges, moved the Bombay High Court on Monday, seeking to be released for a day on June 20 to cast his vote in polls to the state Legislative Council.
Malik was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on February 23 this year in connection with a money laundering probe linked to the activities of fugitive underworld don Dawood Ibrahim and his aides. His party colleague Deshmukh was arrested in November 2021 by the ED on money laundering charges.
