Bazarpeth Police FIR controversy explained: Vimala Hiralal Prajapati alleges illegal land grab attempt, threats, and procedural lapses in the Kalyan case
Complaint to Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis and CP Ashutosh Dumbre raises concerns over alleged police inaction, midnight FIR registration, and safety fears in the Thane district property dispute.
The Bazarpeth Police FIR controversy has come under scrutiny after Vimala Hiralal Prajapati alleged harassment, illegal land-grabbing attempts, and procedural lapses in Kalyan, prompting appeals to Maharashtra authorities.
According to the complaint, Vimala Hiralal Prajapati, a resident of Flat No. 704, Balaji Exotica near Mangeshi Banquet, Chickenghar, Kalyan (W), has sought urgent legal protection and intervention.
The representation has been formally addressed to Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis at Mantralaya, Mumbai, and marked to Thane City Police Commissioner Ashutosh Dumbre for immediate attention and action.
Vimala Hiralal Prajapati stated that she has been the lawful occupant of the property following the demise of her husband, Late Hiralal Ramji Prajapati, who passed away on June 2, 2010.
She further disclosed that she is a cancer patient, while both her children are suffering from serious health issues, placing the family in a vulnerable condition amid the ongoing property dispute.
Allegations involving history-sheeter Sharifuddin Moinuddin Karte and associates in the Kalyan property dispute
The complaint names Sharifuddin Moinuddin Karte, along with his associates, family members, and persons allegedly acting on his behalf, accusing them of sustained harassment and intimidation.
According to the complaint, these individuals allegedly attempted illegal occupation of the property by fabricating fake documents and misusing influence, raising concerns about possible document forgery and unlawful encroachment practices.
Vimala Hiralal Prajapati further alleged that threats were issued to her life and her family members, creating an atmosphere of fear, mental harassment, and insecurity in her residential premises.
The complaint also mentions alleged collusion with certain local elements, although no independent verification of these claims has been publicly confirmed at the time of reporting.
Timeline of complaints and alleged police inaction at Bazarpeth Police Station
The complaint outlines that multiple approaches were made to Bazarpeth Police Station, Kalyan, including an FIR/NC dated April 15, 2026, but no effective action was reportedly taken by authorities.
Vimala Hiralal Prajapati has claimed that despite repeated complaints, the matter did not progress, and there appeared to be undue influence or pressure affecting the course of the investigation.
She also stated that she approached the office of the Deputy Commissioner of Police, Kalyan, and other authorities; however, no relief or concrete action was reportedly provided to date.
The complaint further highlights apprehension of serious danger to her life and family members, alleging that the accused individuals are influential and capable of causing harm if the matter continues.
FIR No. 0126 timing raises procedural and legal concerns
A key issue raised in the complaint pertains to FIR No. 0126 dated April 16, 2026, registered at approximately 00:41 am, which has been described as an unusual late-night registration.
According to the complaint, no prior notice or intimation was given to the accused persons before initiating the FIR, which the complainant argues may be inconsistent with principles of natural justice.
It is further alleged that the FIR was registered despite the absence of immediate urgency, raising questions regarding procedural propriety, timing, and adherence to established legal safeguards in such cases.
The complaint also notes that the FIR was registered against a widow, identified as a senior citizen, along with her children, prompting concerns about proportionality and due diligence in law enforcement actions.

Relief sought includes protection, inquiry, and legal action under the IPC
In the prayer section, Vimala Hiralal Prajapati has requested immediate registration of cases under relevant provisions of the Indian Penal Code, including criminal intimidation, trespass, forgery, and conspiracy.
She has also sought police protection for herself and her family members, citing ongoing threats and fear for personal safety amid the unresolved dispute involving the named individuals.
The complaint additionally calls for strict legal action against the accused persons and a formal inquiry into alleged police inaction at Bazarpeth Police Station, Kalyan.
Further, it urges authorities to prevent illegal occupation attempts and conduct verification of documents that are alleged to have been fabricated or misused in the property dispute.
Administrative response awaited as case highlights wider legal concerns
As of now, there has been no official response from the office of Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis or Commissioner of Police Ashutosh Dumbre regarding the allegations contained in the complaint.
The case underscores broader concerns relating to property disputes, document authenticity, and procedural transparency in FIR registrations, particularly involving vulnerable individuals such as widows and senior citizens.
Sprouts SIT legal experts note that issues involving alleged forgery, intimidation, and police procedure require careful judicial scrutiny, especially when claims of due process violations and safety threats are raised simultaneously.
