Amitabh Bachchan’s Son-In-Law Nikhil Nanda Arrested in High-Profile Fraud Case

In a shocking turn of events, Nikhil Nanda, the son-in-law of Bollywood icon Amitabh Bachchan, has been arrested in connection with a high-profile fraud case. The case has garnered widespread media attention, particularly following tragic allegations involving the suicide of a businessman.

Nikhil Nanda, who serves as the Chairman and Managing Director of Escorts Kubota Limited, has been accused of pressuring a dealer to meet unrealistic sales targets, leading to the businessman’s tragic death. The dealer, Jitendra Singh, the owner of Jai Kisan Traders, a tractor dealership located in Dataganj, Uttar Pradesh, allegedly faced intense pressure from Nanda and other company officials. Singh was reportedly threatened with the revocation of his dealership license and the auctioning of his property if he failed to meet the sales targets set by the company.

The pressure, which included threats to his livelihood, was said to have overwhelmed Singh, leading him to take his own life on November 22, 2024. His death has sparked a significant outcry and prompted legal action. As a result, Nikhil Nanda has been charged with fraud and abetment to suicide.

Escorts Kubota, the company where Nikhil Nanda holds a high-ranking position, has issued an official statement in response to the accusations. The company expressed its commitment to fully cooperate with the ongoing investigation but stated that it had not received any formal legal communication regarding the matter. The company also clarified that the incident does not involve the family members of Nikhil Nanda.

The investigation into the case is still ongoing, with authorities working to gather further evidence and details. Nikhil Nanda has not yet made any public statements regarding the allegations. The tragic death of Jitendra Singh has left his family seeking justice, and the case continues to develop, with many awaiting further updates.

As this legal matter unfolds, the implications for both Nikhil Nanda and Escorts Kubota remain uncertain. The case highlights the intense pressures faced by business owners in a competitive industry, but it also raises critical questions about accountability and corporate responsibility in the workplace.
