Vadodara: A member of a panjrapole (cattle shelter) in Dabhoi was booked for forging a resolution appointing him the president of the cattle shelter.
The current president Rakesh Jain told police that the accused Mehul Shah had forged a resolution of the cattle shelter in October last year and appointed himself as the president and other members as vice-president and secretary. Shah allegedly used the forged resolution to become the signatory authority of the cattle shelter’s bank accounts.
Since Shah had posted about his appointment on social media, Jain and other office-bearers learnt about it and slapped a notice to him. Before Shah could siphon money from the bank accounts, they alerted the banks and reversed the decision. Meanwhile, Shah was given an opportunity to apologize to the office-bearers, but since he refused and did not return the forged resolution documents, Jain approached the police.
An offence of forgery and defamation was registered at Dabhoi police station.
