Victims of Temple Rose Plotting Scam have become criminal investigators!

"We will send investment scamster
Devidas Sajnani of Temple Rose Real Estate Pvt. Ltd. to jail
and recover our money"

Inspector Rajesh Puranik of Economic Offences Wing of Pune Police addressing his team of criminal investigators

For a moment I couldn't believe that I was in the conference hall of Commissioner of Police Pune.

Are all these the victims of Temple Rose Scam? I whispered in the ear of a person standing next to me.

Why are you asking? the man said.

Because these people don't look like helpless victims - begging for justice. I said.

Right. We are not helpless. We are helping ourselves. We are not begging for justice. We are fighting for justice. The man said.

Are you one of the victims? I asked.

I was victimised. But I am no more a victim. Now, I am a criminal investigator. We all are criminal investigators. The man said.

Criminal investigators! Really? I said.

I was almost successful in hiding my sarcastic tone. But I let myself down and said -

You know? When I was a kid - while playing Chor-Police - I used to prefer to be a thief - What about you?

Mr. Criminal Investigator didn't say anything. He just gave me a blank look.

I am Ravi Karandeekar - Pune real estate blogger - I just wanted to confirm that I am at the right place. That's all. I said sheepishly.

Yes, you are. You are attending the weekly meeting of the victims of Temple Rose Plotting Scam who have become criminal investigators. Our mission is to send Devidas Sajnani and his gang to jail and recover our money. Mr. Criminal Investigator said.

I am here for the updates.
I am following this case from the day Mr. Vijay Kumbhar wrote about the illegalities in the plotting scheme of Temple Rose City Pingori Purandar.
Because I have attended the first meeting of the victims organized by Mr. Rajesh Puranik of Economic Offences Wing of Pune Police - I know that - it's not a case of illegal plotting scheme but - a ponzi financial scam of duping more than 5,000 investors for hundreds of crores of rupees.
I know this is the first case in the history of EOW in which the police not only filed FIR but in the next 24 hours arrested the criminal - Devidas Sajnani.
I admire EOW of Pune Police for achieving what Mumbai Police couldn't.
But, I am not aware about your role in the investigation of this scam - which may be one of the biggest financial scams in India.
Oh! Yes, I have heard of Public Police Participation - but don't know what all of you do exactly. So, please, tell me. I requested.

We take leave from our jobs. Sit in the office of EOW. Guide & help the victims to register their complaints along with proper documents. How can you expect Inspector Puranik and his team of 3 people to register thousands of complaints in such a short period of time? Helping him is actually helping ourselves. Isn't it? Mr. Criminal Investigator said.

But, generally, we like to help others. For example - today morning I met GreenITians who plant trees to protect the earth. Many people donate blood. At religious places - devotees do whatever work is given to them - from cooking to sweeping - as 'Seva' - service to God. But, we never help ourselves. Instead of that, we become God almighty and demand to be served - we demand that police should catch the criminals - if they don't - we blame them - we never think of helping police - only school going kids occasionally help the traffic police. How come you decided to spare your valuable time to help the police? I asked.

We got into this trouble because of our greed for money. The same greed for money told us that helping police is a profitable idea. Even if we take without pay leave for a week or two - and lose a few thousand rupees - we can recover our couple of lakhs. Isn't this a lucrative idea? Mr. Criminal Investigator said.

Yes, of course! Now, I know why they say - 'greed is good'! I said.

Besides money - by helping police we are getting something more valuable than money. You know? When someone cheats you - you lose not only money. You lose self respect. You lose confidence & trust of your family. You start hating yourself. You get it all back from the day you start helping police to investigate. You start respecting & loving yourselves. That's why all of us in this conference hall looked very different to you and you asked - Are these the victims? We have won - even before - the case went to trial! Mr. Criminal Investigator said.

Yes! You all are looking like winners. Not victims. This is a huge change. Besides registering complaints what more do you do? I asked.

Mr. Criminal Investigator couldn't share more because Inspector Rajesh Puranik entered and holding a microphone stood in the center of the conference hall.

In a few seconds, there was pin drop silence.

Inspector Puranik said - "First, let me give you a report of the progress of investigation. Then I will talk about the strategy & tasks for the coming week. We will end this meeting after discussing your suggestions & ideas. Okay?"

Oh My God! The most accomplished inspector of Economic Offences Wing of Pune Police was really treating all of them as his team members!

The victims of Temple Rose Plotting Scam have really become criminal investigators - and I am sure - they will not stop till they send Sajnani to jail & get their money back!
