Criminal case filed against Amway at Chikkadapally police station

After a long gap, a criminal case was filed against Amway India Enterprises by the Chikkadapally police station on February 12. One Mr Srinivasa Reddy of Chikkadapally lodged a complaint with the police about the fraudulent modus operandi of Amway India Enterprises after an attempt was made on him to become the member of a money circulation scheme being run by Amway India Enterprises in the guise of sale of products. But the police refused to register the case stating that they were busy with so many crimes. The aggrieved Mr Reddy approached the Nampally Chief Metropolitan Magistrate who issued orders directing the police to register the case and proceed with investigation.
This is only the second case against Amway India Enterprises being the first one registered against the company way back in 2005. The criminal case is still pending in the Nampally Chief Metropolitan Magistrate court. Meanwhile, the Andhra Pradesh State Government issued orders on September 15, 2008 restraining Amway India Enterprises from publishing any advertisement in any media. Still, the Amway India is continuing their advertisement blitzkreig. Now another case is booked against the company.
One has to wait and watch what would now the company do.
