Court-ordered probe expands allegations against Gem Granite Veeramani
A fresh investigation under India’s POCSO law has led police to recover additional digital evidence and identify multiple alleged victims in the case involving industrialist Gem Granite Veeramani, The Hindu reports. The supplied material describes a wider alleged network but gives no court findings or response from the accused.
Industrialist Gem Granite Veeramani is at the centre of an expanding investigation under India’s Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act, The Hindu reports. The report says Veeramani had already been under investigation since last year. A fresh probe ordered by a court led police to recover additional digital evidence and identify multiple alleged victims.
The Hindu describes the case as involving allegations of paedophilia and reports that a wider network of alleged sexual abusers and enablers operated for years. It contrasts the reported scale with that of the case involving the American offender Jeffrey Epstein, while saying the operations were not comparable in size. The supplied material does not provide the number of alleged victims, the nature of the recovered evidence or details of the court order.
It also does not include a response from Veeramani or any other person named in connection with the allegations. The account concerns allegations and an ongoing investigation; the available material does not state that the claims have been established in court.
