Family business: Cheating accused held after 7 years

The accused, Abishek Kumar Surana (30), had transferred Rs 2.5 lakh from the complainant Bharat Kumar Surana’s bank account by forging his signature in 2011, according to the CCB sources. 

Abishek was arrested even as his anticipatory bail petition is scheduled to be heard on Monday. The other accused in this case include Bharat Kumar’s elder brothers, Ramesh Kumar Surana and Dinesh Kumar Surana, and father Milap Chand Surana, who have been running several businesses in the city and Rajasthan. Abhishek is Ramesh Kumar Surana’s son. 

According to Bharat Kumar, he was cheated by the entire family when he was taking care of the family business in Srikalahasti in Andhra Pradesh. 

“My elder brothers transferred the money from my bank account as well as my wife’s by forging our signatures,” he alleged. Apart from Rs 5 crore, Bharat Kumar also claims to have a share of about Rs 15 crore from the family business which his brothers are not willing to part with.
