BANGALORE:
Malleswaram police on Friday arrested four persons for making public sector LIC
policies in fake names and later making false death claims of the policy
holders to the tune of Rs 1.4 crore. This was after five years of taking these
Jeevan Mitra policies from LIC.
The fake claims came to light after LIC officials detected
something fishy in the transactions involving seven LIC policies by the prime
accused Trilok Kanthilala Farik alias Farik alias Trilok, with the help of
another accused, Syed Yusuf to get fake voter identities, ration card and other
documents in the names of non-existent individuals.
To help them was
an LIC staffer Kushal Kumar Katharia (chairman's club member). After five years
of taking the LIC policies, they claimed the policies worth Rs 1.4 crore
stating that the holders were dead. Trilok had changed his name to Aiyappa and
claimed the Rs 14 lakh from LIC making death claims.
Trilok also took a policy in the name of his daughter Jasmine T
Farik in which he made his wife Vandana Farik the nominee. He then claimed that
Jasmine was dead and siphoned off Rs 6.04 lakh. He also withdrew money in the
names of Rupa D Shah and Pushpadevi, after affixing his daughter's photographs
and claimed Rs 26 lakh from Shah's account and Rs 16.5 lakh from Pushpadevi's
policy. He had also claimed Rs 6.58 lakh from a policy taken in the name of his
son Divyesh, claiming that he was dead.
He affixed photograph of Vimala Jain, and giving fake addresses
in the name of Sagaradevi took away Rs10 lakh in the form of death claims. In
another instance he also claimed Rs 16.5 lakh on another death claim of Poonam
to the tune of Rs 16.5 lakh. The suspect was caught when he tried to make a
false death claim on a policy held by Jagadish Choudhary. The LIC managed to
detect the fraud before Fakir could make false claim on 14 more policies to the
tune of Rs 2.5 crore.
WANTED SINCE 1995
City police claimed that Trilok was wanted as a rowdysheeter in
City Market police station, Ulsoorgate, Peenya, Yeshwantpur and Chickpet and is
facing several robbery, extortion, threat assault and burglaries charges since
1987. He was also wanted in another case reported in Mangalore city. He had
come from Delhi, where he was facing a case under Terrorist and Disruptive
Activities (TADA) in Paharganj police station. He was also slapped an
externment order by the police commissioner in 1995. Trilok, Jasmine, Kushal
Kumar and Vandana are behind the bars.
