The victims
While there are many more victims in the Kayast community of the fake schemes sold by Manju, 8 women from Brajeshwari Annex, Ravi Nagar, Vaibhav Nagar and Revenue Nagar are fighting the case. Women shared that many other men and women are not coming out with the issue due to their image in society.

Rashmi Shrivastava 15 lakh
Malini Pujara 4 lakhs
Sangita Banger 2.5 lakh
Jyoti Nigam 2 lakh

How did the women not catch her for so long?
Manju picked up money from women in the community by promising investment returns in 10 days. Initially, she even gave them returns after 10 days. After the return was settled, Manju came up with a new scheme of investment within an hour or two to lure them back into investments.
Among women, who were apprehensive about making money through investments, she shared the tale of how her husband’s case is pending in court and begged for financial assistance to fight the case.
Ensuring that women don’t befriend each other and find out about her fake schemes, Manju regularly spread gossip and tricked them into fighting with each other. Her network was mostly spread in Kayast community.
