The Central Bureau of Investigation has started collecting the deposit documents from Thanjavur-based investors of schemes offered by a Madhya Pradesh-based private firm, as per a Madras High Court order.

According to sources, CBI has set up an office on the Tahsildar office premises in Thanjavur for this purpose and has requested those who have deposited their money in the investment schemes offered by Parivar Dairies and Allied Limited to submit the deposit certificates issued by the company.

In August 2024, the Madras High Court allowed CBI to collect the deposit certificates and present them before the trial court where the over ₹1,500-crore fund cheating case was being heard.

The Central investigation agency started collecting the Parivar Dairies investment scheme documents from depositors in Chennai, Tirutani, Kancheepuram, Perambalur, Thanajvur, Erode, Madurai, Theni, Dindigul, Virudhunagar, Sivagangai, Ramanathapuram and Marthandam from May this year.

The CBI has requested the investors in Thanjavur district to submit the deposit certificates on or before June 14.
