The last allegation has been made by former Mumbai police commissioner Param Bir Singh.

As per the reports, in his letter to the Maharashtra DGP and Mumbai Police Commissioner, the builder shared details of the alleged nexus of brokers that lobby for high-profile posts with the Maharashtra government. He has requested an investigation into the alleged activities of extortion and corruption carried out by Vaze.

Republic TV accessed the complaint and shared more details on the letter. The builder has claimed that he was threatened to pay lakhs of rupees to various persons. In case he failed to comply, a false case would have been filed against him that would end his career. The builder further added that he went to the Crime Intelligence Unit (CIU) to meet Vaze personally. However, the meeting could not take place. Vaze’s aide asked him to pay Rs.5 lakh to Vaze and some other associates.
