EXCLUSIVE: Fresh Details Emerge on House Where Nida Khan Resided in Nashik TCS Conversion Row

Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar: New revelations have come up regarding the ownership of the house in Kaiser Park where Nida Khan was reportedly residing, adding fresh twists to the ongoing Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) Nashik conversion case.

According to some reports of property documents circulated via WhatsApp, the house is registered in the names of Hanif Khan Yusuf Khan and Syed Sarwar Syed Afsar. The documents state that the house was bought for ₹2 lakhs but the actual price is ₹23 lakhs. Notably, the house was sold just three months ago.

Sources indicate that the buyer, linked to the case, allegedly deceived the landlord. The landlord was reportedly unaware that Nida Khan was being accommodated in the house. Further discrepancies have surfaced in the sale documents.

These revelations come amid the conversion case involving TCS, where Nida Khan and others are key figures. The ownership details and alleged deception of the landlord are expected to be examined as the investigation progresses.

The documents, which include registration details and transaction records, have reportedly been shared with investigators. Authorities are likely to scrutinise the property transfer, the parties involved, and the apparent mismatch in the declared value to determine if any financial irregularities or concealment occurred.

This development has intensified scrutiny on the background arrangements in the case.

Accused Nida Khan, who was produced before the Nashik Road Court today (Monday), has been remanded to 14 days of judicial custody.

Amid the ongoing investigation into the case, Maharashtra Minister Sanjay Shirsat on Saturday alleged that AIMIM corporator Mateen Majid Patel sheltered accused Nida Khan in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar and claimed that former MP Imtiaz Jaleel was the "main culprit" in the case.

Speaking to ANI, Shirsat alleged that Khan had been hiding in his constituency for over a month with the support of AIMIM functionaries.

"Nida Khan was kept in hiding in my constituency, Sambhajinagar, for 43 days. A corporator of AIMIM has helped her hide. This is a well-thought-out conspiracy. The accused is just a pawn. Many big figures are behind this racket. Imtiaz Jaleel is also involved in this," Shirsat said.

He further alleged that Jaleel had facilitated Khan's stay in Sambhajinagar along with members of her family.

"Imtiaz Jaleel supported this girl and brought her from Nashik to Sambhajinagar, and she and four other members of her family were staying at his corporator's home. Imtiaz Jaleel is the main culprit. There could be other people up the chain than Imtiaz Jaleel, too," the minister added.

Shirsat also demanded the formation of a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to probe the matter comprehensively. "AIMIM party could be a pawn too. Someone could be behind them as well. The police are going to bring all these things to light during their investigation. I demand, and that's why I have asked the CM as well, that an SIT should be formed, and this should be investigated, and arrest Imtiaz and his partner. When he is in police custody, he will spill all the other names," he said.

Earlier on Friday, Nashik Police took one of the key accused in the case, Nida Khan, into custody from Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar. She is accused in cases related to alleged sexual harassment and hurting religious sentiments.

A local court had earlier dismissed Khan's anticipatory bail plea, while the prosecution opposed relief, citing the seriousness of the allegations. So far, five accused have been arrested, and a total of nine cases have been registered in connection with the matter.

Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis had earlier termed the Nashik TCS incident a "very serious matter" and said the government was probing all angles linked to the case.
