‘Heavy Deposit’ Rental Scam Run by Gulam Mohammed Usman Gani, Bhimji Jiva Lallu, and Asif Menon Exposed – Families Left Homeless, Police Investigation stops suddenly.

Mumbai Uncensored News has discovered a troubling situation of unfair treatment involving Dnyaneshwar Awari and his family, who have become homeless due to a fradulent rental scam.

A rental scam that has left families homeless has been uncovered, involving individuals Gulam Mohammed Usman Gani, Bhimji Jiva Lallu, and Asif Menon.

The Awari family, who lived in Andheri West, were cheated by Gulam Mohammed Usman Gani, Bhimji Jiva Lallu and Asif Menon, shedding light on a disturbing trend of financially vulnerable families being targeted by such fraudsters.

In April 2022, Dnyaneshwar Awari made an agreement with Gulam Mohammed Usman Gani, giving him a large amount of Rs. 5,00,000 in exchange for a one-bedroom flat with a significant upfront payment. Without Awari’s knowledge, the flat actually belonged to someone else named Anwar Boga. Asif Menon acted as the middleman, collecting fifteen thousand rupees in rent every month on behalf of Anwar Boga from Gulam Mohammed Usman Gani.

As the complicated deception came to light, Anwar Boga sensed foul play and promptly requested Dnyaneshwar Awari to vacate the flat. This left Awari, along with his wife and children, roofless for several months. Adding insult to injury, Gulam Mohammed Usman Gani stored their household belongings at a friend’s place in August 2022, but eventually threw everything away after a few months.

The Awari family’s plight took a turn for the worse when Gulam Mohammed Usman Gani issued two cheques in January 2023 worth Rs. 2,00,000 and Rs. 2,60,000 from DCB Bank. Both the cheques bounced as the bank said that Gulam’s account was already blocked. Subsequent attempts to compensate Awari with a cheque from Bank of India for Rs. 2,60,000 also bounced in February 2023. In a bid to seek justice, Dnyaneshwar Awari & his wife lodged a written complaint against Gulam Mohammed Usman Gani and Bhimji Jiva Lallu at Versova Police Station on January 2, 2023.

Despite the Awari family fully cooperating with the police’s investigation, the progress has come to a halt. After giving their statements and participating in the investigation on January 6, 2023, the family has not heard anything further from the Investigating Officer, Mr. Manoj Havale.

This unfortunate incident highlights a troubling pattern in Mumbai, where fraudsters take advantage of financially vulnerable families through misleading rental agreements. Victims describe a recurring situation where the accused offer them flats in exchange for a large security deposit, promising its return at the end of the lease. However, these same individuals, who lease the properties from homeowners on a monthly basis, fail to pay rent, leading to the eviction of the unsuspecting families.

Mumbai Uncensored News is committed to bringing such cases to the forefront, revealing the difficulties faced by vulnerable families who are taken advantage of by these manipulative tactics. As investigations continue, it is crucial for swift action to be taken against those responsible. Both the victims and the larger community hope that justice will be served and those who exploit others in this way will be held accountable under the law.
