In a decisive legal action following directions from the Gujarat High Court, prominent diamond businessman and realtor Vasant Gajera, along with his two brothers, has been arrested in connection with a major forgery and cheating case.
Authorities allege that the accused fraudulently manipulated official documents and transferred substantial business stakes through forged signatures, deceiving a business partner in a high-value transaction. The arrests follow a detailed investigation initiated after a complaint was filed citing financial deception and document forgery.
The Gujarat High Court had directed law enforcement to take prompt action, emphasizing strict accountability for high-net-worth individuals involved in fraudulent practices. Investigators are now examining financial records and digital signatures to assess the full scale of the alleged fraud.
Law enforcement officials have also issued look-out circulars to prevent any attempts at evasion, while the Economic Crime Cell continues probing potential links to larger financial irregularities.
The case has sent shockwaves across the diamond and real estate sectors in Surat, signaling a zero-tolerance approach toward financial malpractice and document forgery. Authorities have vowed to pursue the matter rigorously to ensure justice.
