Another parent, Mujahidul Islam, alleged that Jaiswal and Baig started giving evasive answers when they were asked about the hall tickets. "On Thursday, Jaiswal bluntly told us that outwards would not be getting hall tickets. We then decided to approach the police as we realised we had been duped," Islam said.
The owner of the classes, Shahid Baig claimed he had nothing to do with the incident and put the blame on Jaiswal. "I have nothing to do with this issue. I have just charged my tuition fees. Jaiswal took money from students promising them hall tickets and also issued receipts. I am a teacher, all the allegations against me are false," Baig said in his defence.
Senior Inspector Jayprakash Bhosle of Chembur police station said Jaiswal was arrested from his Goregaon residence last week and has been charged under sections 420 (cheating) and 406 (breach of trust) of the Indian Penal Code and further probe was underway.
