By Muslim Mirror Staff,
Hyderabad: One of the biggest scams in non banking sector involving over 20 thousand crore rupees which is unfolding gradually indicates the dubious role of Muslim clerics involved in the scam. It’s confirmed now that Nowhera Shaikh of Heera Group used the services of Ulema and religious scholars to lure insusceptible people to invest their hard earned money into her different companies.
After her arrest on Tuesday by the Hyderabad police on charges of allegedly cheating thousands of investors, many of them now revealed that they were “impressed” and “trusted” by seeing a galaxy of Ulema at the group’s programmes and functions.
Besides always invoking the name “Allah” and Islamic teaching, Nowhera Shaikh’s other modus operandi to trick the potential investors was to demonstrate that the group had the patronage of clerics and theologians. .
The names of certain ulema religious scholars have been mentioned in the context of the Heera Group investment scandal. Even one of the victims has told the Hyderabad police that he had made huge investments with the group based on the statements of the ulema.
According to Deccan Chronicle, an investor, Mohammed Abdul Majeed, whose statement was recorded by the Central Crime Station as a witness, said that he was inspired by the “Islamic talks and halal trading in the name of Islamic Shariah by Ms Nowhera Shaikh, Moulana Meraj Rabbani of Uttar Pradesh, Moulana Arshad Basheer Madani, and Moulana Jalaluddin Qasmi etc”.
According to the police, Heera Group is a consortium of more than 15 companies having branches in India and abroad and it has also more than 160 bank accounts across India.
Majeed said he had invested Rs 28 lakh with Heera Retail, Hyderabad Pvt Ltd and Rs 2.5 lakh in Heera Gold Exim Ltd. Ms Shaikh has allegedly collected huge amounts from Indians and from NRIs by establishing corporate offices there.
After his revelation, these Maulanas may come under the lens of Police who without realizing her real intent endorsed the Heera Group products.
Shahbaz Ahmed Khan, who has been taking cudgels on behalf of the helpless investors and also formed an informal body called the Heera Victims Association, said many people had complained that they had trusted Nowhera Shaikh by seeing the galaxy of ulemas.
Nowhera Shaikh, who was the managing director of Heera Group of Companies, has been accused of collecting hundreds of crores of rupees from thousands of people across the country. Cases have been registered against her at different places in the country, including Hyderabad, Mumbai, Bangalore and Tirupati. She had also tried to take refuge under politics by launching a political party All India Mahila Empowerment Party (MEP). But the move was more to empower himself than to empower women.
She was arrested following a complaint by one of the victims at Banjara Hills police station in the city.
Initial probe has revealed that she had collected deposits in the name of 15 subsidiary companies. The company operates 160 accounts in different banks in different parts of the country.
According to Shahbaaz Ahmad Khan who is fighting for the victims the scam involves ‘over 50k crore INR’.

True
Ameen
Let’s give Ms Shaikh a chance!
Don’t give judgement without knowing facts, just based on Islamophobic media which does not want Islamic investments to succeed!
How much did you invest?
Agree
If not than
is she your relative?
It is really sad that people fall prey to such fraudsters for big returns on investments without knowing anything about the facts as to how anyone can give so much money as profit sharing and that too in a recession driven world economy since the early years of this century. Now it is convenient for them to blame the religious leaders for their own greed. Anyway I don’t think legally much can be done in these type of cases, as history has shown That hardly any case has been taken to its logical conclusion. Only Allah can help these greedy.

You are right. This Heera Gold gang is given to telling lies to promote there type of understanding of Islam. Even their Ulamas tell lies. All the innocent greedy people are most likely doomed. Government must arrest the abetters in the crime including bogus Ulamas. The law should bring all to justice. Of course,all ponzy schemes must be treated on par before the law.
And devour not others’ property by unclean and dishonest means.

Kya shahbaz khan ne gaurantee diya hai ki ms sheikh ki giraftari ke baad woh court do chaar mahine mein sab ke paise dilwa dega. Ya phir jinka case liya hai unka sara kharch uthayga.
The most important thing where has she siphoned of the money?How to recover it?
Lets pray to Allah
Inna lillahi wa inna ilaihi rajioun .Allahumma jurni fi musibati wakhluf li khairam minha.

Is lady ne bahut acche kaam.bhi kiye hain.
Allah unhe tauba ki taufeeq dede ga aur hum gunah gaar hojayenge.
She is not a criminal… cnt u see some ppl are harrassing how will she concentrate on her businees
I have sympathy with all investors. Request everyone to check the business module and its reality before investing your hard earned money. Nowadays no one bothers about halaal and haraam also which is wrong . If ppl invested to earn interest they should know that interest is haraam. And if you thought it was business than any business have risk of lossess and you have to be ready for it always.
Exactly brother!
