In the complaint, Kapil Sharma had told the police that he had paid more than ₹ 5 crore to Mr Chhabria between March and May 2017 to design a vanity bus for him. But as there was no progress made till 2019, Kapil Sharma had approached the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT).
However, Mr Chabbria last year sent a bill of ₹ 1.20 crore to Kapil Sharma as parking charges for the vanity bus. After that Kapil Sharma approached the police and registered his complaint.
“During the investigation of the case, the role of Bonito Chhabria came to light. Therefore, he was called for questioning and later placed under arrest by the crime branch,” he said.
Last year, the Mumbai crime branch had arrested Dilip Chhabria in connection with multi crore car financing scam.
