ave been directed to appear in Court on June 17 to face trial for offences under Sections 119, 120, 420 read with 120-B of the Indian Penal Code and Section 13(1)(c) and (d) of the Prevention of Corruption Act.
The Court in December last year while rejecting the plea of the Crime Branch to close the case against Dilip Parulekar and while noting that it was not satisfied with the investigation conducted by the Crime Branch under Section 190 (1) (a) of the Criminal Procedure Code took cognizance of the complaint filed by Adv Aires Rodrigues and had conducted an inquiry.
Adv Rodrigues in his complaint had drawn the Court’s attention that the 599 sq mt of prime land at Porvorim was given to Parulekar without auction and without following procedures contemplated under the Code of Comunidade and that the whole intention was to fraudulently facilitate the doling out prime land.
Adv Rodrigues further stated that the Comunidade of Serula granted the 599 sq. mts to Dilip Parulekar for a mere Rs 3,41,320/- though the value of the land was otherwise worth more than a crore and that Parulekar in connivance with Martins and Sequeira had grabbed that Comunidade land at a throw away price by illegal means.
