A staggering scam of around ₹500 to ₹1000 crore has rocked Gurugram. The police arrested Dhruvdatt Sharma, a cunning societal elite and the director of 32 Milestone Avenue. He is accused of trapping countless individuals with assurances of insured rental returns, only to deceive them out of millions. The Economic Offenses Wing presented him in court, leading to a six-day police remand.
Investigations reveal Dhruvdatt Sharma lured victims with promises of handsome returns, persuading them to invest with exorbitant expectations. Yet, no returns were provided, and millions were embezzled.
The accused misused the swindled capital to construct luxury villas along the seashores of Goa and invest in properties in Neemrana, Rajasthan. Under the guise of insured rental returns, grand illusions were painted, facilitating the swindling of billions.
