Bengaluru, Jun 13: Seven directors of I Monetary Advisory (IMA) Group were arrested on Wednesday in connection with the Ponzi scheme that has ripped off over 20,000 people across the state of hundreds of crores of rupees.

The arrests came as the Karnataka government appointed deputy inspector general of police BR Ravikanthe Gowda as the head of the 11-member Special Investigation Team to probe the alleged scam. The number of investors who lodged complaints on Wednesday crossed 20,000. Several investors demanded that the matter should be referred to the Enforcement Directorate.

IMA founder Mohammed Mansoor Khan remained elusive. The arrested directors are Nizamuddin, Nasir Hussain, Naveed Ahmed, Arshad Khan, Wasim, Ansar Pasha and Dada Peer. Police said they recovered loads of documents from the IMA offices on Lady Curzon Road in Shivajinagar and Jayanagar. Most of the arrested directors had completed only Class 10 or 12.

Muslim politicians — Shivajinagar MLA R Roshan Baig and minority welfare minister BZ Zameer Ahmed Khan — said they didn’t promote IMA or were part of the agency. Baig said he was being implicated because he raised his voice against the Congress high command. Zameer said his transactions with IMA were legitimate.

Police sources confirmed that a woman police sub-inspector who had invested Rs 7 lakh in the IMA Group has been hospitalized in Bengaluru after she panicked over the fate of her money and plunged into depression.

January 21,2020

Bengaluru, Jan 21: A massive protest against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), National Register of Citizens (NRC), and National Population Register (NPR) was witnessed at Shivajinagar's Chandni Chowk area on Tuesday.

Scores of people came together carrying national flags and placards to register their protest in the city.

Speaking to ANI, a protester said, "People of all religious community have assembled here in Chandni Chowk to protest against CAA, NRC, and NPR. We the people of India are against this law."

Terming the law as anti-constitutional, he said that we support all the states who oppose the CAA. We demand the revocation of CAA and the government should remove conditions in NPR which lead to NRC.

CAA grants citizenship to Hindu, Sikh, Jain, Parsi, Buddhist and Christian communities fleeing religious persecution from Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Bangladesh and who came to India on or before December 31, 2014.
