Not long ago, Godhra Superintendent of Police Himanshu Solanki launched a campaign against moneylenders. In which legal action was also taken against some usurers. At present, some usurers are doing illegal interest business behind closed doors. A man living in Manibanagar Avaran Society located at Kanelav Road in Godhra city lost his job due to economic recession during the corona period, so this man who was experiencing financial hardship needed money to start a business. So, with the help of his familiar friend, five percent article took five lakh rupees from the borrower.

In this regard, Swapnil Shah said that Hyundai Venue car and all original documents including RC book, insurance policy, as well as blank check of ICIC Bank were notarized as a substitute, but did not mention that interest money was taken from the notary. So out of five lakh money taken from time to time, Rs. 3,50,000 along with monthly interest was paid monthly in cash and the remaining Rs. 1,50,000, both of them came to my house and snatched a gold chain of one and a half tola worth 50,000 and a pendant of gold in the shape of an elephant’s tusk.

While the remaining Rs. 1,50,000 money, they said to take back the jewelry and left. So I borrowed and paid one and a half lakh rupees from my brother-in-law including interest and when these two men wanted my jewelery and car and the check back, they demanded an additional two lakhs. A complaint was filed against these two usurers in Godhra A-Division Police Station.

According to the received details of this incident, Swapnil Jayeshkumar Shah, who lives in Kanelav Road Manibanagar Avaran Society of Godhra city, said in his police complaint that due to the economic recession due to the Corona period in the year 2021, I needed capital to open a tractor showroom at Santrampur due to the loss of my job. So I contacted my acquaintance Kamal Shrimali (reside Panjarapole next to SBI Bank Godhra) who told me that self-proclaimed Godhra Srichandra Baswani (residence Rajeshwari mobile shop above Dhankawad) recommended that he gives money on interest. I was very much in need of money to open a showroom, so I, Kamal Shrimali arranged a meeting with Atmaprakash at his shop and gave me five lakh rupees in cash at 5% monthly interest and got it notarized. He did not mention the money taken at interest.

In lieu of notary, ICIC Bank’s blank check and mortgage of my Hyundai car No.GJ.17 BN.4455 were notarized. So I gradually paid 3,50,000 out of 5,00,000 with interest. When 1,50,000 was left, for which Atmaprakash Srichandra Baswani and Kamal Shrimali used to say such abuses at my house and argued with me and forced me to give the money immediately with interest. So I told them that there is no money arrangement, when I asked for a term, I did not give a term, they said, if there is jewelry, give the jewelry and used to come to the society everyday and used abusive words. So out of shame I took away the one and a half tola gold chain worth 50,000 and the tiger nail shaped gold pendant worth 15,000 from me saying that when Rs. 1,50,000 then take your jewelry. So I borrowed Rs. 1,50,000 from my brother-in-law, I gave 1,50,000 to Atmaprakash Srichand Baswani with interest, but when I asked for my jewelery and car and blank cheque, he did not give it and demanded two lakh more. So Swapnil Jayeshkumar Shah filed a complaint against both usurers in Godhra A-Division Police Station. Police have registered a case and are conducting further investigation.
