Ernakulam Central police registered the cheating case based on the complaint of Asif Puthukattil Aliyar, an NRK returnee hailing from nearby Muvattupuzha.


According to the FIR, the 45-year old actor and the others had cheated him of Rs 43 lakh as various instalments after promising a franchise of Dharmoo's Fish, a business venture for fish sale owned by Dharmajan, and convincing him of reaping huge profit through that.


The complainant alleged that though he started a fish hub at his hometown, his business suffered a huge loss as the actor did not keep his word of ensuring steady supply of fish.


Dharmajan was yet to react to the police complaint and case.
