While the Mamlatdar of Salcete, Mr Phaldesai on 19th February, 2007 was
expected to be hearing the reply to his show cause notice issued Ms. Dilnashin
Amir Ahmed Shaikh alias Manyata (claimed to be recently married to film star
Sanjay Dutt ) to prove her credentials of residence in Goa, at 1130 hrs at the
Collectorate office Margao Goa ; the same had to be adjourned to 7th March,
2008 for want of sufficient time . According to the local lawyer Mr Manoj
Dessai representaing her he is stated to have pleaded for time as the notice
was pasted on the door of her alleged abode at House No: 1743, Opp Costa
Grounds Near the Hospital of Dr K A Prabhudesai opthalmagist, Aquem Alto
belonging to one Kadam Desai a few days ago.
While many were eager to have a glimpse of Manyata it turned out to be a false
alarm.
However in the small causes court at Bandra a different proceedings altogether
got underway.
When the hearing commenced this afternoon post lunch session in Case No:
1033/PW/07 and Custody case No:1178 /PW /07 one Mr Mohammed Mehraj presently
lodged in the Arthur Road jail allegedly claiming to be the husband of Ms.
Dilnashin Amir Ahmed Shaikh alias Manyata through whom he has a son now in the
Middle East, was asked to prove his credentials of marriage by the time of the
next hearing on 25th February, 2008. According to the information gathered by
this writer from a source in . the court room Mr Mehraj spoke in Hindi and
English and appears to be of robust appearance around 30 to 35 years. It is
also learnt that he owns a chain of bakeries in Hyderabad. After the brief
proceedings which ended at 1548 hrs he waved to the media and others but was
not permitted to interact with the audio and visual media.
It is now to be seen how the who drama unfurls on 25th February, 2008.
Meanwhile it is surprising that the Shri Chandrakant Pissurlekar, Civil
Registrar-Cum- Sub -Registrar, Salcete, has niether been placed under
suspension nor has he being issued a show cause notice, till date. This
confirms the belief that higher ups are involved in the matter.
