The Vegetable Vendor is the residence of the Maigar Raipatti area in the Ghazipur district. And is frequently questioned and visited by police officials, Income Tax officials, and other officials. Rastogi has denied that the bank account does not belong to him.
IT Department and police have been investigating the matter. IT team is searching about how this amount of funds have been transferred to the person, and further, the police have transferred the case to the Cyber Teeam as the matter is linked with the digital fund transfer.
Approx a month ago, IT officials were working on a list with the accounts having disproportion funds transfer, and the Vegetable Vendor had his name on the list. Since that time, officials have been investigating the matter.
But the vegetable vendor has denied ownership of the bank account. So what do you think about how this amount was credited to his account? Is he involved in money laundering, or how could someone open a bank account with his name? All the things are still unclear. What do you think about this incident?
