GURGAON/NEW DELHI: Gurgaon Police on Wednesday admitted that a typographical error was committed while registering a first information report ( FIR ) against former Reebok executives and said the apparel and sports goods maker had alleged that it would take a hit of Rs 870 crore – and not Rs 8,700 crore – due to the alleged irregularities by two ex-employees.The statement came even as former managing director Subhinder Singh Prem and ex-COO Vishnu Bhagat said the allegations in the FIR were “false and fabricated”.“We have gone through the contents of the FIR. All allegations are false and fabricated and it is very clear that this is an attempt to inflict grave harassment at us because we acted as whistleblowers on various fraudulent as well as illegal activities being carried out by the Adidas management people. This is also in retaliation to our recovery suits which we have recently filed in the Delhi High Court. Further, all business decisions / practices referred in the FIR were based on collective decisions involving all relevant senior management personnel and the headquarters. We have all the documentary evidences to prove the above. We are confident that truth and justice will prevail,” they said in a joint statement.Following the furore created by the typographical error in the FIR, the Gurgaon Police swung into action and suspended a computer operator. City police commissioner K K Sindhu said a special investigation team (SIT) headed by ACP (Crime) has been constituted to probe Reebok’s allegations. “The team has three inspectors, cyber crime experts and officers from the economic offences wing,” Sindhu said. The commissioner said that although the company claims to have incurred a loss of Rs 870 crore, the police will only comment on it after investigations are over. “We are collecting the details and documents from the company,” he added.Sources said that DCP (east) Maheshwar Dyal met his officials and Reebok executives.
