Hearing the bail plea of two accused in a cheating case,the court of Additional District and Sessions Judge S S Sahani on Monday directed the UT Police to give a three-day notice to the accused before arresting them.

The accused,Seema Khutten and Renu,have been blamed by Sector 37-based chartered accountant Rajesh Jindal for cheating him.

A few days back,Jindal had filed a complaint with the Chandigarh Police alleging that he had given Rs 1.30 crore to former Congress councillor Arshad Khan for investment,but when he did not get the returns,he reportedly contacted Khan,who told him that his money would be given to him by Khutten.

Khutten reportedly gave three cheques for Rs 5 lakh each to Jindal which were later dishonoured by the bank. After this,the complainant approached the police. The case is currently under investigation and an FIR is yet to be registered. However,the two accused had filed a bail application in court in this matter.

Last week,the police had raided the houses of Khutten,who has been named as one of the accused in another cheating case along with Arshad Khan. They had allegedly cheated a British national Patricia Craig of Rs 71 lakh. The police party had later given a four-day notice to her to join the investigations. The notice was handed over to Seema’s mother at her house in Sector 24.
