Dino Morea has been summoned by the Economic Offences Wing (EOW) of the Mumbai Police in connection with the high-profile Mithi River desilting scam . The case centers around the alleged misappropriation of over ₹65 crore, funds originally earmarked for cleaning and maintaining the Mithi River — a vital drainage artery in Mumbai, particularly significant for managing the city’s monsoon floods.
According to investigative reports, the scam involves inflated charges for the rental of dredging and silt-clearing equipment. It is alleged that BMC officials , along with Kadam and Jay Joshi, overbilled the civic body for machinery sourced from Kochi-based Matprop Technical Services Pvt. Ltd. The EOW believes this was carried out in collusion with some Matprop employees and officials from the BMC’s Storm Water Drains (SWD) department.
Dino's involvement in the case is currently under scrutiny, with authorities seeking clarity on his possible connections to the individuals and transactions in question.
As the investigation continues, the focus remains on uncovering the depth of the alleged financial irregularities and determining the roles of all parties involved.
