According to police, there are nine cases against Nusrat in Malappuram, Palakkad, Thrissur and Kollam stations for committing fraud by posing as a lawyer and offering jobs in the Railways.

Several complaints were raised against Nusrat showing that she had embezzled money and gold worth half a crore of rupees from many people in a year.

The victims of fraud had lodged complaints with the Chief Minister, DGP and Malappuram SP. The victims of the fraud alleged that the accused tried to settle the case by using her influence.
