ACP Deshmukh said the accused submitted the papers related to their project to the company. “The finance company gave money to the developer, but the latter neither completed the project nor returned the money.”
Police sources said that buyers had registered a separate case against the builder with Navi Mumbai police for duping them because their transactions took place there. Dadar police booked the developers under sections 406 (breach of trust), 420 (cheating), 465 (forgery), and others of the Indian Penal Code.
