Mumbai: The special CBI court has convicted garment firm Asha Exim Apparels Pvt Ltd and its directors Rajesh Kanojia and Prakash Kanojia in a Bank of Baroda fraud case involving ₹4.76 crore.
The court sentenced both directors to three years’ imprisonment and imposed a fine of ₹2 crore each. The company was also directed to pay a fine of ₹1 lakh.
