Mumbai, June 19
Entrepreneur and interior designer Sussanne Khan, the former wife of actor Hrithik Roshan, has reportedly been booked by the Panaji police in an alleged Rs 1.87 crore cheating case by a firm.
Sussanne on Sunday said the complaint accusing her of falsely projecting herself as an architect to secure a contract with the company was false, motivated and preposterous.
According to a news report, Emgee Enterprises in September 2013 executed a contract with Sussanne “for architectural and designing services” for its Naira Complex being constructed at Siridao in Tiswadi, North Goa.
The complainant alleged Sussanne failed to deliver the project within the period stipulated in the contract.
Sussanne, who is currently in London, claimed she had challenged the termination of the contract with Emgee Enterprises and invoked arbitration under the contract for recovery of her dues,
“As a counter-blast to the proceedings, Mudhit Gupta, only with the intention to harass and pressure me to give in to his frivolous counterclaim, initiated the criminal complaint,” she added. — IANS
