Bigg Boss Marathi 3 contestant Jay Dudhane was arrested at Mumbai airport in an alleged Rs 5 crore fraud case, after he was accused of selling a commercial property to multiple buyers using fake documents, causing significant financial losses to the potential customers. Reports of his arrest came just 10 days after his marriage to his longtime girlfriend, content creator Harshala Patil.
Jay Dudhane Breaks Silence After Arrest in ₹5 Crore Fraud Case
Jay has finally reacted to the shocking allegations against him, denying all claims and stating that he is not afraid, as the entire matter has been twisted in very dishonest ways. After his arrest, while sitting in a police van and speaking to the media, Jay told TV9 that many people advised him to wear a mask to cover his face, but he chose not to, adding that he is ready to face the situation and has complete faith in the judicial system.
'If Anyone Has Proof, Let Them Present'
Reacting to the Rs 5 crore allegation that he sold one shop to multiple people and cheated them, Jay said the claim was laughable. Jay added, "Honestly, I was shocked... If anyone has proof, let them present it. It's unbelievable because the agreement has already been executed, and it would be impossible for one shop to be sold to multiple people. If it’s true, then prove it."
Talking about his arrest, Jay said that he was travelling abroad with his wife, Harshala Patil, his brother, and his sister-in-law for their honeymoon, and that he was unaware there was an LOC (lookout circular) issued against his name.
He said, "At the airport, during immigration, I was informed that I cannot leave the country. When I realised this, I fully cooperated with the authorities and will continue to do so with all procedures."
After arrest, members of Jay's family, including his mother, sister, grandmother, and grandfather, were questioned in connection with the FIR filed in the fraud case.
