A few days ago, a special
court set up under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act
had ordered the attachment of properties owned by former actress Mamta Kulkarni
who is wanted in a narcotics case. The properties include three flats
(worth about Rs 20 crore) owned by the actress at Arshie Complex in Mumbai’s
Versova after she and her husband, Vicky Goswami did not appear before the court.
Mamta and Vicky are wanted
for illegally manufacturing and exporting Ephedrine and party drug
methamphetamine to various countries, including the US.

SpotboyE.com has it that
the Arshie Complex flats may be attached, anytime now.
A
visit to Arshie Complex by this journalist yesterday morning to check if the
attachment has been carried out, yielded a meeting with a stern watchman who
said that he would have to consult the building's treasurer Mr Sinha, if we
could click the pictures of Mamta Kulkarni's flats' doors. Mr Sinha then did
not allow, and he was not interested in speaking about the matter also.

We also have it that Mamta and Vicky have stopped paying
the society. Their cheques stopped coming ever since Mamta was named in the
drug scandal and she went absconding.
A month later, Mamta hired top-notch lawyers to
fight her case.

The entire case began in
April last year, when Thane police seized Rs 2,000 crore-worth of the banned
party drug Ephedrine. Later, based on information given by 2 arrested peddlers, the cops found 18,000 kg of the
drug in a factory owned by Avon Lifesciences in Solapur. Mamta, they found out,
is on the company’s board of directors and owns shares worth Rs 11 lakh. Not
just that, an accused also testified that she was part of business meetings in
which details of the drug trade and distribution were discussed.

When contacted,
DCP Abhishek Trimukhe told SpotboyE.com, "Well, the Court has passed the
order that Mamta's flats need to be attached. So, that will be done. I don't
know exactly when, but it will be surely done in due course.
So that's that!
