Upon a complaint made by at least 50 flat buyers, Delhi police has filed a charge sheet against cricketer-politician Gautam Gambhir and several others for alleged criminal breach of trust and cheating flat buyers.
Going by the reports, complainants alleged that they booked flats in a real estate project in Ghaziabad’s Indirapuram in 2011 but it did not take off.
The former India opener, now BJP’s MP from Delhi, Gambhir was a director and the brand ambassador of the project of Rudra Buildwell Reality Pvt Ltd and H R Infracity Pvt Ltd. The complainants have alleged that “the project was extensively promoted and advertised and Gambhir, as the brand ambassador, helped in attracting and inviting buyers to invest in the project”.
