Saira Banu requests PM Modi, as booked builder gets released

17th December 2018

Bollywood's legendary star Dilip Kumar's wife Saira Banu has requested for help from the Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi, as builder Samir Bhojwani who claimed ownership of two plots in Bandra's Pali Hill on which Dilip Kumar's bungalow was built, was released. He was arrested by the Economic Offences Wing (EOW) of the Crime Branch of Mumbai Police in April.

Now the builder is free and Saira Banu has made a special request from Dilip Kumar's twitter handle. The tweet read "Request from Saira Banu Khan: The Hon'ble @PMOIndia Shri @narendramodi Sir, Land Mafia Samir Bhojwani released from jail. No action taken despite assurances by CM @Dev_Fadnavis . Padma Vibhushit betrayed, threatened by money and muscle power. Request meeting with you in #Mumbai." 

Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis was tagged in the tweet as well who earlier assured the case to be closed. The matter is in the light since quite a long with Banu having lodged a complaint against Bhojwani with the police earlier this year.

In January, the EOW had registered a case of cheating against the builder for allegedly trying to grab Kumar's bungalow. Officials suspected at the time that Bhojwani forged some documents to get the property. After the offence was registered, an EOW team raided Bhojwani's residence in Bandra from where they seized weapons, including knives and daggers.
