Pune: Stepson Defrauds Step Mother By Transferring Money From Her Bank Account

Aundh, 9th February 2023: After the death of his father, the stepson of a family living in the Aundh area embezzled Rs 11,40,28,000 deposited by his father in the bank account of his stepmother.

After the court ordered the police to file a case in this matter, it was informed on Thursday that the police have registered a case against Mukund Ashok Kaire (51), a resident of Noida, Uttar Pradesh almost after two years. In this regard, Aarti Ashok Kaire (70) filed a complaint with the police against her stepson at Chaturshringi police station. The incident took place between 2020 and 2022.

According to the information given by the police, the accused Mukund Kaire is the stepson of the complainant. When her husband Ashok Kaire was alive, the total amount of investment in the mutual fund account made by him for the future of his wife was Rs 11,40,28,000.

While the said amount was in his possession between October 9 to October 12, 2020, at the time of his death, the said amount was embezzled and withdrawn by the accused. For that, the stepson created a fake email id in the name of Ashok Kaire in August 2020.

Thereby the accused changed the registered mobile number of Kaire of respective different mutual fund accounts and inserted his mobile number in it. The said mobile number was registered pretending to belong to Kaire and then he misused the said fake email id and the changed registered mobile number to fraudulently deposit all the funds in his bank account without any authority.

Assistant Police Inspector S Zarekar of Sahakarnagar Police Station is conducting further investigation into this matter.
