Nagpur: Enforcement of Directorate Nagpur on Wednesday provisionally attached properties worth Rs 13.71 crore, including immovable assets in Chandrapur and Nagpur districts of Maharashtra.
Official sources said that these actions are part of an ongoing investigation into an alleged scam related to the online tiger safari booking at the Tadoba Andhari Tiger Reserve.
The case revolves around Abhishek Vinodkumar Thakur and Rohit Vinodkumar Thakur, both partners of M/s Wild Connectivity Solutions (WCS), who are accused of defrauding the forest department.
The investigation was initiated after Maharashtra Police registered an FIR in Chandrapur District under various sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) for alleged financial misconduct and misappropriation.
The ED’s probe revealed that WCS was contracted by the Tadoba Andhari Tiger Reserve Conservation Foundation through a Service Level Agreement (SLA) to provide essential services, including the collection of entry fees, gypsy charges, and guide charges.
However, the Thakur brothers allegedly violated the terms of the agreement, resulting in a financial loss of approximately Rs. 16.5 crore during the fiscal years 2020-21 to 2023-24.
