The Mumbai session’s court rejected her bail plea stating that custodial interrogation was required to uncover the details of the fraud and to know who forged fake documents, reports Hindustan Times.
The woman had been fighting a battle for maintenance from 2012. While her children were allowed maintenance by the family court, she was denied the same. Therefore, she has approached session’s court.
She produced the bank statements of her husband, his parents, and their company to show their income, thereby, claim maintenance for herself.
However, after enquiry, her husband found out that a local police constable had issued fake summons to his bank demanding issuance of his bank statements in connection with another case of cheating.
The complainant claimed that the summons were false and were created only to obtain his bank statements. He then filed a case of forgery and cheating on the woman.
