The Rawat police station has filed a case against popular film star Javed Sheikh and five others for defrauding him of Rs 5 crore by offering to get benefits under Section 420 in a complaint filed by the couple.
The order to register the case was issued by the Additional District and Sessions Judge. Police have summoned all the accused for questioning.
Amjad Mahmood and his wife Iram Amjad said in their complaint that he forced film stars Javed Sheikh, Jahanzeb Alam, Jamal Khan, Rana Zahid, Azhar Hussain and Samir Jadoon to invest by promising them a monthly return of 7%. They entered into a bond agreement and paid Rs 5 crore. However, a few months passed and he was threatened when he asked to return and the principal also refused. When the police refused to register the case, he had to approach the court.
