The FIR against the Leader of the Opposition in the State Legislative Council was registered under various IPC sections on Monday, including 420 (cheating), 406 (criminal breach of trust), 120-b (criminal association) following a complaint by party official Aam Aadmi Dhananjay Shinde.
The plaintiff alleged that Darekar posed as a laborer, which was later found to be false. He was chairman of Mumbai Bank from 2011 to 2021 and allegedly engaged in various financial irregularities, he said.
Shinde said he contacted MRA Marg police here on January 8 to file an FIR against Darekar for allegedly deceiving people, the bank and the cooperative department.
He claimed that it was a “scam over Rs 2,000” and that they will approach the Economic Offenses Wing (EOW) of the police in this regard.
