HC wants to know if there is a sale deed by the church land trust
The Bombay High Court on Thursday asked bishop of Mumbai Prakash Patole to file an affidavit stating whether or not there is any sale deed between the Bombay Diocesan Trust Association (BDTA) that runs Afghan Church and any private builders.
Additional public prosecutor Sangeeta Shinde said the case will be heard on November 17 by when Patole will have to submit his affidavit.
Former bishop of Mumbai Baiju Gavit and other trust members of the BDTA that runs Afghan Church in Colaba had moved the high court urging it to quash a complaint of forgery and cheating filed at Colaba police station.
Gavit with trustees Bishop Vijay Sathe, Shrikant Salvi and the bishop of Pune Rajnikant Salvi, in their application stated that an activist, Cyril Dara, had filed bogus complaints against them for allegedly striking illegal deals worth crores of rupees with various builders for development of the land where the Afghan Church, a heritage structure, stands on. more
