Reproduced below is complaint made to DGP in 2005. Now after RTI act came into force, we are trying to get this report ... And police is desperately trying to hide the inquiry report. Information Commissioner of Maharashtra, has to give verdict before 17th April 2008. Final hearing was on 10th April 2008.
The Police have already comfirmed, that an inquiry was conducted on my complaint. I then asked for inquiry report.

Subject: EOW collobrating with Criminals. CR no 47/2004.
Sir,
There is a case against Mr. Raj Basantani of Soundcraft Industries Ltd., in the sessions court No 16, under the MPID act.
Mr. Basantani has absconded with over Rs 1,000 crores (Rupees One Thousand Crores). He was running 3 companies listed on the Stock Exchanges, Soundcraft Industries Ltd., Adamcomsof Ltd., and Kolar Biotec Ltd., plus atleast 25 other Ltd and Pvt. Ltd. companies. He is now floated Doctors Biotec Ltd., somewhere.
EOW wing of Mumbai Police is working hand in glove, with Basantani, to weaken the case. The IO officer Mr. Inamdar has filed FIR against 2 directors only, Mr. Tekchandani and Mr Hingorani, both were arrested and Mr Tekchandani is already free on bail, he has assured bail for Mr. Hingorani within a few days.
Mr. Basantani is supposed to have fled abroad, but he confidently continues to receive phone calls (from known people) on his mobile no 98200 60781, SMS messages he receives and replies even to unknown people.
Mr. Basantani speaks often with EOW officials regularly and also through a deal broker, who calls himself Manish Agrawal (mobile 098260 22552). Manish drives EOW officials in cars, benami owned by the officers.
Mr. Ashish Verma Asst. Director (tax and Administration) serious fraud Investigation Officer, attached to Ministry of Company affairs, Delhi, is also probing.
I may very soon file a Public Interest Petition in the Mumbai Court.
You as an upright senior most Police Official, can put an end to such anti-national acts, book EOW officers and save my money and effort of going to court.
Thanks,
Sincerely,
I K Chhugani

Thanks for posting this, but could you just add a paragraph to explain more of what we are reading? I'm not too sure I understand what you are trying to say.
Thanks!

EOW means .... Economic Offence Wing of Mumbai Police
A fraudster Rajkumar Basantani cheated numerous banks and 50,000 fixed depositors in India . Amount involved is Rs 1000 crores ($ 250 million approx) ... after he fled all top police officers plus Judge trying his case and Bank managers were in touch with him on his mobile phone, which he did not bother to swithch off.
He had excellent relations with all Sr cops from Mumbai, he even had contributed Rs 25 lakhs (rs 2.5 million) for renovating the police Gymkhana in Mumbai.
It is the corrupt people who were in touch with him, trying to weaken the case against him... Taking orders from the crook. Though there is a Interpol red alert for him, the police from India is making no effort, to arrest and bring him back.
