SLIDESHOW: DONALD TRUMP’S 30 CRAZIEST TWEETS!
When Kamat visited a project in Gurgaon described as “the most prestigious address in the city,” she found an empty lot. Another project in Gurgaon — an office tower billed by Trump Jr. as “one of the most exciting and sought after commercial towers in India and beyond” — was also just a lot, although goats had taken to grazing there.
The Trump Organization’s partner for the latter project, IREO, was accused last month of cheating investors out of nearly $150 million.
The Trump Tower in Mumbai appears to be the only project underway, with the tower nearly completed. However, officials told Kamat they have been investigating Trump’s partner for the project, the Lodha Group, on allegations of money laundering and tax fraud.
