Actor Dino Morea appears before Mumbai Police’s Economic Offences Wing (EOW) for questioning in connection with the alleged Mithi River desilting scam. According to reports, his appearance follows earlier steps in the investigation, including the submission of personal bank records by the Morea brothers. Authorities are examining suspected links between companies associated with Morea and other individuals tied to the probe.
The case centers on alleged financial irregularities connected to contracts for the river’s rejuvenation. One report states the BMC suffered an alleged loss of Rs 65.54 crore. Investigators cite phone records connecting Morea to people associated with the investigation, and they are also looking into claims of collusion involving contractors and BMC officials, including alleged fake billing. In a separate development, Morea is arrested after hours of questioning, while EOW officials also summon him again to discuss further alleged connections.
Across outlets, the common focus is the role of EOW questioning—first linked to phone records and prior investigative materials—and the allegation of municipal contract-related losses, with authorities continuing to probe the broader network around the work and payments.
