He wears a Versace suit, diamond-studded Gucci shoes, alternates between Rolex, Piaget and Boucheron watches, drives around in a Rolls-Royce or a Ferrari but pays his ex-wife a meagre Rs 1,500 monthly maintenance.

Abhishek Verma, the only child of well-known poet Shrikant Verma and Rajya Sabha MP Veena Verma, is in serious trouble with various law enforcement agencies including the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), Enforcement Directorate (ED), Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) and Income Tax. The way he made his millions is under investigation.

He was also questioned by Serious Fraud Office in London. But it apparently never bothered him, harbouring the feeling that he could get away with any and everything - with his money and connections. In fact, he himself is said to be nurturing political ambitions.

Not many 35-year-olds can boast of owning a fleet of world's most expensive cars, a house in Park Lane, London, a private jet, a yatch, a plush three-storeyed officein Vasant Vihar and a safe deposit at Harrods among other properties. And what apparently got him into trouble was his opulence and his fondness for flaunting his riches. And he also liked to impress women by showering expensive gifts on them.

That is another matter that his wife got a divorce from him last year on grounds of cruelty. She walked out on him with their three-month-old child in less than four years after marriage in 1996 and they were legally divorced last year. "He wanted all the good things in life and got them too, but never paid for them," is how a person who knows him well sums him up.

There are stories of how he used to show off his wealth - about how he stacked his living-room with wads of notes and was happiness personified when they reached the ceiling. Officers investigating the various allegations against him say that Abhishek set up two companies by the name ESAM Airlines and ESAM India. He started leasing cargo aircraft and also tied up with Armenian Airlines. "That was the timehe got involved full time in money-laundering along with some political bigwigs. He had only been dabbling in it before that," said an official.

Another way he made money was by foreign exchange embezzlement, by encashing fake LCs (letters of credit). "He ostensibly made large exports from ESAM India. The material was never sent. Instead he used to ship all junk and dump it abroad. But got the LCs, for material which he never exported, made and also encashed them," he added. He owes the Income Tax department anything between Rs 50-100 crore. They are still calculating as they uncover more and more underhand dealings.

Abhishek was arrested by the CBI on December 1 for colluding with former ED deputy director Ashok Aggarwal to implicate Delhi-based jeweller Subhash Barjatya in a FERA case. He was later let off on bail by the court. But with the confidence that riches bring, Abhishek does not appear unduly worried. He was recently spotted at one of the city's yuppie watering hole in a five-star hotel,downing Tequila after Tequila, with a couple of friends.

Abhishek's wayward ways were visible while he was still in college when he hit the headlines. After finishing school from Sardar Patel, he enrolled in Hindu College for graduation. He got into trouble in the first year itself when he and his security guards beat up a fellow student who Abhishek thought had stolen his Parker pen. He had security at the time by the virtue of being the son of Shrikant Verma, who was then the AICC spokesman.

That was the first time he made it to the newspapers. And the second time was in 1994, when he was already in the thick of his questionable dealings. He was shot at while waiting for his car at the steps of Maurya Sheraton hotel. Then in November 1997, he was back - on the cover of the magazine India Today which did a story on the super rich.

Abhishek Verma was born on 23rd February 1968 into a family that had served in Indian politics for half a century. Abhishek�s late father Shrikant Verma, was a leading journalist before the powerful Indira Gandhi inducted him into the Indian National Congress, and made him a member of India's Parliament in 1976. When Gandhi returned as Prime Minister in the early 1980s, the articulate Shrikant Verma became the official spokesman and later the General Secretary of the Congress Party. His job was tough but immensely challenging: it entailed holding daily briefings for journalists, brainstorming party policies and generally helping the party evolve. Besides, he found time to write several books novels, many of which have been translated into foreign languages. The elder Verma died at the Sloane Kettering Hospital in New York in May 1986, battling cancer. Shrikant Verma's foster mother, Minimata, was a Member of Parliament for an impressive 24 years, beginning 1950, until an aircrash cut short her life. Abhishek Verma's mother and Shrikant Verma's wife, Veena Verma, served 14 years in the Parliament as a member of the Congress Party. After graduating from Hindu College in New Delhi and Georgetown University in Washington D.C., in 1989 Abhishek became Editor-Publisher of India Worldwide, a US-based monthly magazine co-published by the Indian National Congress' overseas Chairman Kamal Dandona, allowing Verma to forge close ties with the dynamic leader Rajiv Gandhi who was ending his five-year term as Prime Minister. When P.V. Narasimha Rao succeeded Rajiv Gandhi as the Prime Minister, Abhishek rode the crest of business opportunities that arose largely out of the Indian Government's vast liberalization measures, helping his fledgling company ESAM India Limited to surge ahead. ESAM launched a cargo airline, and soon after acquired several cargo aircraft from the erstwhile Soviet Union to operate on the Indo-Russian and Indo-Gulf sectors. Riding on the success of the airline, ESAM launched initiatives in financial engineering, trade and counter-trade with Russia in a wide array of products and services, all of which contributed to a US$400 million annual turnover, between 1994 and 1999. Abhishek was featured on INDIA TODAY�s cover in 1997 During the last few years, there were tectonic shifts in the world political scene, exponential growth in Indian and Asian fixed and mobile telephony, and the accelerating worldwide convergence between telephony, internet and television as well as increased defense spending budgets of the Indian Armed Forces in excess of US$ 40 billion. Abhishek�s strategic focus on the defense and telecom business has taken shape with Atlas Group of Companies, a global defense contractor and telecom powerhouse delivering services in more than 70 countries with revenues exceeding US $1.5 billion. Abhishek is the Chairman of Atlas Defense Systems Ltd and Atlas Interactive India Private Limited and Group Director Atlas Group of Companies In 2006, former Deputy Prime Minister of India L.K. Advani accused Abhishek of acting as an agent for Thales Defense France and receiving $175 million in kickbacks from the sale of 6 Scorpene Submarines purchased by the Indian Navy for $5 billion. After lengthy investigations spanning 2 years, by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) he was exonerated by the High Court of Delhi in 2008. http://www.zeenews.com/news516647.html
