After facing the Enforcement Directorate and the Central Bureau of Investigation in connection with the NSE Co-Location scam, former Mumbai police commissioner and former DGP Maharashtra, Sanjay Pandey, is under the scanner for asking Amravati police commissioner to stop investigation of the Anugrah Ponzi scheme case. He had done so during his tenure as DGP Maharashtra. Before his appointment as CP Mumbai this year in February, Pandey was DGP of Maharashtra for 10 months.

Sources said the DGP office may now hold a review of Pandey’s order asking Amravati police to stop investigation to look into a possible conflict of interest. “It is very strange that a DGP is directing a commissioner of police to stop enquiry on a complaint against a Ponzi scheme company till further orders,” a senior officer of Maharashtra police said.
