Supreme Court Issues Notice To Remo D’Souza; Denies Stay On Fraud Case

The Supreme Court issued a notice to Bollywood choreographer Remo D’Souza regarding his petition and requested a response from involved parties. Despite this, the court declined to stay the ongoing case against D’Souza in the lower court, with the next hearing scheduled in four weeks.

Businessman’s FIR Accuses Remo D’Souza Of Fraud & Threats

The legal dispute dates back to December 2016, when Ghaziabad businessman Satyendra Tyagi filed an FIR against D’Souza, accusing him of fraudulent promises and intimidation.

Tyagi alleges that D’Souza convinced him to invest Rs 5 crore in a film project with the promise of a doubled return of Rs 10 crore. However, when Tyagi sought his investment back after a year with no results, he claims D’Souza threatened him through underworld figure Prasad Pujari.

Police Charge Bollywood Choreographer & Alleged Underworld Associate

Following Tyagi’s complaint, the police charged both D’Souza and Pujari under sections 420 (cheating), 406 (criminal breach of trust), and 386 (extortion) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC). In response, the lower court issued summonses to D’Souza, demanding his appearance in court.

High Court Denies D’Souza’s Plea To Dismiss Case

D’Souza initially approached the High Court to seek cancellation of the case, but the court declined his request, citing that his petition did not challenge the police charge sheet directly. As a result, the High Court determined that there was no basis to offer him relief at this stage.

This Supreme Court notice signals further developments in D’Souza’s ongoing legal challenge, as he faces scrutiny from both the judicial system and the public. The case is set for its next hearing in four weeks, keeping the spotlight on D’Souza’s alleged dealings and raising questions about the role of financial disputes in the film industry.
