The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) filed a second supplementary chargesheet on Saturday against Deepankar Barman, the alleged mastermind behind the Rs 400 crore ponzi scam linked to his company DB Stock Consultancy in Assam. Barman, arrested on October 27 from Goa, is accused of collecting deposits from investors through five unregulated schemes promising high returns.

According to the charge sheet filed before a special court in Guwahati, the accused, along with associates Monalisha Das, Chabin Barman, Deepali Talukdar, and Mukesh Agrawal, convinced investors with guarantees of returns, providing Rs 100 stamp papers as proof.

However, since June 2024, many investors reported irregular payments and failed returns.

The CBI had re-registered 41 cases from the Assam government, consolidating them into 35 FIRs.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
