Two Ontario Sikh temples have been pulled into the widening array of legal and business controversies related to lawyer and former Liberal MP Rajvinder Grewal.
A pair of companies are suing the temples for the return of more than $13-million in loans obtained using the religious groups’ property as collateral. Mr. Grewal’s law firm allegedly failed to properly execute paperwork associated with the loans, a claim that has been repeated in other litigation faced by the former politician. In addition, $250,000 from an alleged cheque fraud connected to his firm was routed to a temple’s bank accounts.
