Court acquits Sudipto, Debjani in 3 of 7 cases
Hindustan Times Delhi
|August 20, 2025
A Kolkata court on Tuesday acquitted Saradha group owner Sudipto Sen and his associate Debjani Mukherjee in three Ponzi fraud cases, citing lack of witnesses, lawyers aware of the court proceedings said.
“Figuring among the 300-odd cases filed against Sen in and outside Bengal, these were registered by Kolkata’s Hastings police station after his arrest in 2013, on the basis of complaints lodged by three investors,” a lawyer said, requesting anonymity.
The order was passed by the court of the Ith judicial magistrate at Bichar Bhawan.
