Pune (Maharashtra) [India], August 28 (ANI): The Pune Police have registered a case against Indian Police Service (IPS) officer Bhagyashree Navtake, who previously led the investigation into a Rs 1,200 crore scam involving a credit cooperative society.
The case was filed based on a Criminal Investigation Department (CID) report highlighting procedural lapses in the scam investigation.
Navtake, currently posted as State Reserve Police Force (SRPF) superintendent in Chandrapur, was booked under sections 120-B, 466, 474, and 201 of the Indian Penal Code.
