The special MCOCA court in Mumbai on Wednesday granted bail to Mohammed Salim Qureshi, alias Salim Fruit, brother-in-law of gangster Chhota Shakeel, in an extortion case, an official said.
Fruit and his associates allegedly demanded an extortion amount of Rs 62 lakhs from a businessman. Fearing for his safety, the businessman transferred Rs 7.5 lakhs and handed over his Range Rover, valued at Rs 30 lakhs. The businessman later filed a complaint with the Versova police, and the case was transferred to the Anti-Extortion Cell, which arrested Fruit in October 2022.
