A special Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) court in Unakoti district, Tripura, has sentenced three executives of Pragatishil Infra Project Services Pvt Ltd to six years of rigorous imprisonment for defrauding depositors. The court, presided over by Judge Debasish Kar, found the executives guilty of embezzling around ₹5.50 crore from over 800 depositors. The firm, which began operations in 2009, collected deposits by promising attractive returns but ceased payments by late 2012, leading to numerous complaints and an FIR filed at the Kailashar police station. Following a thorough investigation, the CBI charged Arindam Das (Chairman and Managing Director), Deepsikha Das (Administrative Director), and Paritosh Das (Managing Director) under the Tripura Protection of Interests of Depositors (in Financial Establishments) Act, 2000. In addition to the prison sentences, the court ordered the seizure of the company's assets to compensate the victims, marking a significant legal precedent in Tripura's ongoing battle against fraudulent financial schemes.
