The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has made serious allegations against Navtake, accusing her of pressuring officers from Pimpri-Chinchwad and Pune rural police to register cases and influencing investigations. According to the FIR filed, Navtake and others were said to have lodged three offenses within 24 hours without proper inquiry, with two complainants not even present in person. Despite the relatively small amount involved in the crimes, the Economic Offences Wing took over the investigation without following proper procedures.
The FIR also points out irregularities such as selective accusations, charge sheets, and a conflict of interest in appointing a special public prosecutor. The CBI has also raised concerns about deliberate negligence towards evidence and falsified official notes.
This latest development comes after an earlier FIR was lodged by the city police in August 2024 against Navtake, based on a CID report that highlighted procedural lapses during her time leading the EOW in Pune. Navtake has remained silent on the allegations despite numerous attempts to reach her for comment.
The case is still ongoing, with further investigations being conducted to determine the full extent of Navtake’s alleged involvement in the scam.
