New Delhi, Jan 20 (IANS) A complaint against Prateek Yadav, the younger son of Samajwadi Party supremo Mulayam Singh Yadav, had been sent to the investigating agencies in 2021 alleging fake companies being run by him.
Prateek Yadav has a brother-in-law, Aman Singh Bisht, the younger brother of his wife Aparna Yadav.
As per the annual returns for 2018-19 of Monal Infraprojects, the email and telephone numbers of Aman Singh Bisht are mentioned. One of the directors of the company is Chandrashekhar Singh Bisht, who is the cousin brother of Aman Singh Bisht.
As per the complaint filed by Supreme Court lawyer Vishwanath Chaturvedi, a company named Piscesia Power Transmission made several transactions with Monal Infraprojects and Monal Infraventures and amounts in several lakhs were transferred. The complaint was sent to the Income Tax Department with copies to CBI and ED.
On January 18, 2021, Rs 58.26 lakh was transferred to Monal Infraprojects, on February 5, Rs 24 lakh was transferred to Monal Infraventures, and on April 4, Rs 1.25 crore was transferred to Monal Infraventures.
Piscesia Power Transmission has four directors: Manoj Kumar Singh, who is a childhood friend and classmate of Prateek Yadav, Vivek Yadav, a close contact of Yadav family hailing from Etawah, Prashant Singh and Euy Don Park.
Chaturvedi said in the complaint that this sequence of transactions show that Prateek Yadav is running fake companies only on paper. He said 16 such companies are registered at a single address in Gomti Nagar in Lucknow.
Chaturvedi told IANS that there are 16 ponzi companies registered in the same address, that of the father-in-law of Prateek Yadav, and email and mobile number of Aman Singh Bisht.
Chaturvedi said Piscesia Power has transferred a huge amount to Kulwinder Singh Bains, who is an aide of underworld don Chhota Shakeel.
