HONDA: The husband and wife team from Honda, Sattari, who were detained last month for defrauding people out of millions of rupees under the guise of selling properties in Goa and Maharashtra, have been able to collect Rs 43 lakh, according to the Valpoi Police.
Numerous allegations of infidelity have been made against the accused, Vijaynath Gawade, and his spouse, Vidisha Gawade.
The couple’s strategy, according to the authorities, was to use fictitious documents to entice investors to purchase real estate in Dodamarg or Bicholim.
Police claimed that after gaining trust through the issuance of checks or affidavits, they would then refuse to turn over the property or return the money.
Police claim that a bank that had no bills took the gold and mortgaged it.
The pair is currently the subject of four cases, two of which are at Valpoi Police Station and one each at Bicholim and Ponda Police Station.
Police have called on anyone who could have been tricked by the couple to come forward and report them. At the moment, the pair is free on bail.
