According to police, in 2023, Sahare’s daughter appeared for the NEET exam but did not qualify for MBBS admission due to low marks. Soon after, she received information about RK Education Counselling Centre and contacted Kotpalliwar. He promised to get her admission in the management quota at Sri Lakshmi Narayan Institute of Medical Sciences for Rs 85 lakh. Sahare paid Rs 30 lakh via a demand draft, but his daughter was never admitted in the MBBS course. When he asked for a refund, Parimal gave him a cheque, which bounced.
Additionally, Parimal and his accomplices also cheated Chandrashekhar Shankarrao Bawane from Saoner of Rs 40 lakh through the same modus operandi. The Police officials suspect that the group has deceived many others in a similar way.
