A retired ENT surgeon from Kondhwa, aged 67, fell victim to an alleged scam amounting to ₹5.37 crore, orchestrated under the guise of religious services promising spiritual rewards, including a 'space in heaven.' The incident unfolded between October 2018 and April 2024, with suspects identified as Sadiq Sheikh, Yasmin Sheikh, Etesham Sheikh, Aman Sheikh, and Raj Narsu. Police officials revealed that the suspects exploited the doctor's trust, initially engaging him in religious discussions before manipulating him into transferring property documents and surrendering assets. They allegedly coerced him into procuring 11 reward certificates for various properties and relinquishing cash, gold articles, and gold biscuits.
