ADV.AMIT DESAI DIRECTED TO REFUND 5 LAKHS.

SP DIRECTS ADV. AMIT DESAI TO URGENTLY REFUND THE FIVE LAKHS

North Goa Superintendent of Police Mr. Arvind Gawas has directed Mumbai Senior Advocate Amit Desai to urgently refund the five lakhs that was erroneously paid to him under a bonafied belief that he had appeared for those four hearings before the Bombay High Court at Goa in the Ryan Fernandes confirmation of death sentence case.

Acting on a complaint filed by Adv. Aires Rodrigues, SP Arvind Gawas in his letter to Adv. Amit Desai has stated that there was an inadvertent error in clearing the bills which were erroneously certified by the Investigating officer of the case Deputy Superintendent of Police Mr. Mahesh Gaonkar.

SP Gawas has further informed Adv. Amit Desai that the police have now confirmed from the records of the High Court that he had not appeared before the High Court on those four days for which he had billed the Goa government.

Mr. Gawas has in his letter also drawn Adv. Amit Desai’s attention that the Law department had also stated that he was entitled to Rs 1, 25,000 per appearance only before the High Court and not for any fees towards conference or meetings that he may have held in Goa.

While the Goa police are hoping to close the case by getting Adv. Amit Desai to refund the five lakhs, Adv. Aires Rodrigues has demanded that Adv Amit Desai and Adv. Ashwin Bhobe should be also booked and punished for committing offences of cheating, misappropriation of property, and breach of trust under Section 420, r/w Sec 34 & section 120-B of the Indian Penal Code.

Panaji Judicial Magistrate First Class Mrs. Sarika Fadessai has already issued notices to North Goa Superintendent of Police Mr. Arvind Gawas and Panaji Police Inspector Ramesh Gaonkar to appear in Court on 1st November on a petition filed by Adv. Aires Rodrgues seeking directions of the Court to the police to register and investigate the cheating case against Adv. Amit Desai and Adv. Ashwin Bhobe for cheating the State exchequer to the tune of five lakhs.

Adv Rodrigues has stated that Adv. Amit Desai’s raising the bills was a clear act of cheating, while Adv. Ashwin Bhobe criminally conspired and corroborated in the act by submitting those bills to the government inspite of knowing that the bills were falsely raised and that there were factually no such court appearances by Adv. Amit Desai.
