A legal advisor of Stage Door Communication Pvt Ltd (SDCPL) approached this reporter outside the courtroom on Thursday and asked if there is a possibility of a 'settlement' in the scam exposed by mid-day. This reporter replied to the woman saying, "It is an open and shut case (of cheating) between the SDCPL and duped people, including farmers."
The five accused employees of the SDCPL were taken for a remand hearing to the Thane Metropolitan court at 3 pm on Thursday. They were remanded to police custody till March 18.
