MUMBAI: CBI lodged a cheating case against Reliance Capital Ltd (RCL), its ex-chairman Anil Ambani and unknown public servants in the alleged Rs 1,816 crore loss caused to Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO).CBI alleged that EPFO invested Rs 2,500 crore in RCL’s secured non-convertible debentures in 2013-14 and the company subsequently defaulted on repayment.Earlier, the issue was settled before National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT), but recently ED shared its investigation finding of RCL’s fraudulent transactions. Based on this, EPFO subsequently filed a fraud case with CBI against Ambani and RCL.A spokesperson of Anil Ambani said, “The FIR registered by CBI pertains to Reliance Capital Limited.
