Sprouts News Probe Uncovers Alleged Conspiracy Involving Police Officials and Convicted Criminal

A major extortion racket targeting an Neral-based education trust has been exposed. Whistleblowers alleges a systematic plot to capture the institution and its operations at Neral, by threatening to file false criminal cases against the Directors of Leela Education Trust. A sum of ₹1.5 crore forms the core of this alleged coercion.

The Trust’s management, a very well respected and educated family, who is involved in the noble profession of Teaching young generations are now under threat. Accusation details a plan to file fraudulent police complaints and pressurize corrupt police officers to file false F.I.R.s against them. This aims to pressure the family into surrendering the control of their assets, under the undue influence of the alleged criminals and corrupt lawyers.

At the centre is an individual named (fraudster) Rajvinder Singh. He allegedly has a history of robbery and is now using a different identity in order to deceive people into fraud and because of this the innocent business owners are living in threat of loss of reputation and are succumbed into forceful settlements. His past includes a six-year jail sentence for a Bank robbery in Shahapur. And many cases under section 420 of I.P.C. and other serious criminal cases are filed against them.

The Alleged Playbook: From Fake Complaints to Property Grabbing

The modus operandi follows a disturbing pattern, common in such rackets.

First, fraudulent legal documents and property papers are created. Since in Ulhasnagar property used to be sold and purchased only on Notarized Sale agreement and not by proper registration at the Registrar as is the case now a days.

The accused person uses Stamps and other materials of deceased Notary holders and arrange a back dated Stamp papers and then contact legal heirs of the deceased Notary holder to use their stamps and notary register to notarize fake back dated sale deed in their favour and claim the same to be executed in past and file fraudulent cases against genuine property owners.

These fake documents are then used to initiate lengthy civil or criminal cases.
Some times when the legal heirs of the deceased notary holder do not comply with the demands of the above named persons, they drag them in false cases with the help of the police network that they have created since years with help of political influence and money raised from illegal activities like match fixing.

The goal is to misguide and provide false information in order to obtain stay order from the Hon’ble Court of Law. This freezes the property, preventing the rightful owner from using it in anyways.

The victim is then coerced into a settlement under financial and legal duress. Not only this the reputed business owners scared of diminishing their reputation in market which will cause them long term harm agree to their demand and do not even report the said illegal activities because they understand the nexus since there is political influence as well as police network involved and they will not be heard, since as per them fighting a pig will only make a pig happier.

In this instance, the trust was allegedly pressured into paying the amount of ₹1.5 crore. The person involved in demanding the money claims that, as per his story, he gave the directors of Leela Education Trust a sum of ₹1.55 crore (One crore fifty-five lakhs) entirely in cash during the period of February 2016 to October 2016, days before the beginning of the Great Demonetisation.

The convicted felon, released after completing a six-year sentence for a 2011 robbery, claims to have accumulated ₹1.55 crore in cash within five years—a claim that stretches the bounds of imagination and reality.

Further, if the so called amount was given to the Directors of Leela Education Trust, how did they manage to change the said huge amount claimed to be given to the Honest Education Trust. It is nothing but another vivid imagination of the convicted felon by name Rajvinder Singh only to pressurize the innocent law abiding citizens.

Nexus of Influence: Police and Legal Machinery Allegedly Weaponised

The accusations involve Police Constable Anil Patil of Ulhasnagar’s Zone 4. He is accused of facilitating a fake First Information Report (FIR). P.I. Bade and Ghodse are also accused of threatening to file false cases to facilitate the R&L Group.

This official police action lends credence to the false allegations. The wider scheme allegedly involves a network of police officials and corrupt lawyers.

They are accused of acting as intermediaries or ‘Dalals/Agents’. Their role is to manipulate the legal process for financial gain by filing false FIRs and civil suits using fraudulent, back-dated property agreements.

This creates an atmosphere of terror for honest business owners. Even reputable families find themselves entangled in fabricated legal battles. The process itself becomes a punishment, draining resources and morale.

In this extortion case, Leela Education Trust operates from Neral, and its directors reside in Vashi, Navi Mumbai. However, they were summoned to Ulhasnagar 1 Police Station for an inquiry based on false allegations by Rajvinder Singh.

To their surprise, the directors attended and questioned the jurisdiction of the police station. The investigating officer had no answers and allowed them to leave.

Imagine the panic for someone unfamiliar with police procedures. Such individuals may surrender to criminals and settle by paying hefty sums outside the police station. In doing so, justice loses.

The true story, as heard by us, is that the directors had a business deal in Ulhasnagar that turned bitter. The other party then approached the R&L Group, where convicted felon Rajvinder Singh is a partner, to seek revenge.

They created a false story accusing the directors of taking cash to make him a director of the Trust. This narrative is totally false and fabricated by Rajvinder Singh.

A Wider Criminal Enterprise: Smuggling, Match-Fixing and Political Links

The allegations suggest connections to broader organised crime syndicates operating in and around Ulhasnagar. The same individuals are linked to cricket match-fixing and betting networks.

They are also accused of frequent involvement in gold and currency smuggling operations, making a joke of the legal system.

Their method involves pitting criminal gangs against each other. If members deny their demands, they turn informants to have rivals arrested.

This consolidates their power and ensures compliance through fear. The strategy helps them operate with reduced competition and increased leverage.

Disturbingly, the network may enjoy political patronage. Whispers suggest high-level inquiries have already begun against some officials.

The alleged scale of corruption points to deep systemic vulnerabilities.

The Societal Cost: Erosion of Trust in Legal Institutions

This case is not isolated but part of a rampant trend in Ulhasnagar. Honest traders and businessmen are regularly targeted by such syndicates.

The very institutions meant to protect citizens are allegedly being weaponised. Recently, a reputed teacher, Mrs. Pathare, well-known social workers Manish Hingorani and Kapil Arsul, and the Tekchandani Brothers were trapped in a land-grabbing attempt.

Thankfully, she contacted a reputed legal advisor in Ulhasnagar, Shri Gopal V. Bhagat. He secured anticipatory bail for her against a false FIR.

(Social workers and BJP activists Manish Hingorani and Kapil Arsul appeal to all victims of the R&L Group to contact them or Adv. Gopal V. Bhagat for assistance).

The long-term consequence is a severe erosion of public trust. When legal systems can be manipulated for extortion, justice becomes a commodity.

This undermines the foundation of lawful commerce and community safety. The Sprouts News Special Investigation Team highlights this critical issue.

A transparent probe by higher authorities is urgently needed. Only decisive action can restore faith and protect citizens from predatory schemes like the R&L Group.

Further, it is alleged that the owners of the R&L Company are arranging a wedding ceremony at a five-star hotel in Lonavala. They have reportedly booked about 200 rooms and arranged a lavish reception.

Special international room services are arranged for guests, including corrupt police officers, match-fixers, bookies, smugglers, and illegal advisors. Many history-sheeters from Gujarat, Punjab, M.P., Delhi, Pune, Nasik,Nandurbar . Chembur.New mumbai and other areas are also invited.

To cover the huge expense, the R&L Group has ordered their associates—bookies, smugglers, a famous RTO agent, and scared property owners—to arrange over Rs. 1 crore.

Since they are involved in illegal activities, it will be interesting to see who attends, as investigating agencies are looking for their well-wishers.

Sprouts News has learnt from a reliable source that for months, the R&L Group has been filing false cases against rivals in Ulhasnagar and across states like M.P., Delhi, Gujarat, and Punjab.

This is their new way of threatening the public, forcing them to travel to other states for court hearings to disrupt their business and force financial settlements.

Further, they are now targeting honest journalists and social workers with false cases to silence them and prevent exposure of their illegal activities in Ulhasnagar.
