Ahmedabad: “If you will give me money, I will destroy you in the amount of rain money” – these words by Tantric from Naranpura lured a man from satellite, and he finally lost Rs 1 Crore to criminals.
This was stated in complaints submitted with satellite police on Saturday.
Jignesh Mahorowala, 49, a resident of Jay Ma Society near the circle of Mansi on the satellite, is the son of a class 2 officer who retired from the state government.
Mahorowala struggled to find work or organize business, when he was introduced with Hitesh Yagnik accused, by an ordinary friend in 2010.
Yagnik claimed to have a magical power.
When Yagnik and Mahorowala kept meeting, they began to discuss the power of godly and ritual tantra to get money and to fulfill other wishes.
In 2016, Yagnik was allegedly convincing Mahorowala that he had the power to regulate the Shower Notes.
Yagnik later, planted a small ground pot in Mahorowala’s house and did some Tantric ritual claiming that it would bring good luck, expressing fir.
Mahorowala claims that Yagnik used to do some Tantra rituals at his home regularly, and every time he demanded something from him.
“On his request, I gave him three scooters worth around Rs 1.30 lakh and my family member ornaments worth Rs 4 Lakh,” he said.
He further said that the defendant told him that there was a plot of 50,000 hectares of land in Rapar Taluka from Kutch, and if he bought it, then the land would bring him good luck.
Convinced by the proposal, Mahorowala gave Yagnik around Rs 96 lakh in installments.
He arranged the money from all his family’s savings and even broke his remaining deposits.
Meanwhile, Yagnik continued to take money and other items from Mahorowala on behalf of bringing good luck to him.
In March 2021, when Mahorowala did not have Kutch’s land and also did not have a change of luck for better days he asked Yagnik to return the money.
After giving a guarantee, Yagnik went to communicate.
Mahorowala then approached the satellite police and filed a complaint of violations of trust and cheating on Yagnik.
The police said that Yagnik, who previously lived in Naranpura, then shifted to the farmhouse in Pethapur in Gandhinagar.
But he was on his way because the complaint was submitted against him.
