Published on: 

If the family members of the prime accused in the high profile Paytm extortion case are to be believed police investigation smells  of a plot and its fairness is being doubted. According to the relatives of the main accused Sonia Dhawan, she has been implicated in the case by police at the behest of Paytm management.

The relatives have dubbed the police investigation as unfair and their doubts is not as such but rather arises out of the fact that accused Sonia Dhawan was not only reportedly drawing a hefty salary package of Rs 80 lakh per annum from the company but is among its share holders of the company since its inception. Having stakes in form of equity share worth Rs 15 crores in the company. Nevertheless, Sonia is accused of demanding Rs 10 crore as extortion in her bank account.

Her sister Rupali Dhawan, told The Pioneer that it’s not getting down her throat that an employee who enjoys such a huge stake and is drawing such a huge amount as salary, would demand sum of Rs 10 crore that too in her bank account.

She alleged that the Paytm management has fabricated facts to get her sister trapped  in a false case.
