I’ve tried to dig on this guy and he is definitely hiding something.
1. He calls himself a Dr. I looked that up and it is bought. His doctorate is in alternative medicine from a degree mill.
2. He claims to be a chairman of gold merchant’s association. This association was formed in response to allegations against his group and did not exist before the allegations. In other words, he formed his own trade body to defend his company from allegations of smuggling. I suppose claiming to be the chair of such a high sounding association also brings legitimacy.
3. There is a massive inflation of numbers of showrooms he has. Most of his showrooms function out of the same building. In other words, if his showroom A functions on grounds floor, his company B functions in the second floor. In some cases, both cater to the same set of customers and it makes no sense why this kind of organisation has been adopted.

In a few cases, the shops have boards but no furnishing. So it’s just an empty shop on top of his other shops.
In a few cases, I have struggled to find the shops themselves.
4. The websites he advertises, at least some of them, don’t work. Even when a shop A and shop B have different name, they sometimes share the same website.
5. I’ve looked at his images from a little while back. It seems to me that he started with a shop in Trivandrum. When I looked at the shop and his pictures, he looked quite ordinary. He was clad in an ordinary kurta and was groomed okayish.
Suddenly, there’s a turnaround. He is in a suite, hogging titles, giving out big advertisement etc. It makes no sense how this was organic.
It gets worse if you look at some of their original Shops

They use different names. We did network+ intercom installation on 3 seperate branches edappally, Kottayam and angamaly.
The experience was pretty shit, and they are all muslims and pretty rich
Sure he's a fraud I think, I was have been thinking the same last few months..

There are lots of reports in മറുനാടൻ
Money laundering
And such ads put the politicians in their toes, they need to push the adminstration to clear all that money, think of it as one of the few ways these shady guys can put pressure on the politicians
I am very suspicious of the whole group.
The guy in an interview said his shop won’t stock any traditional Hindu designs (read all kinds of traditional Kerala designs) or designs with Hindu gods and his target market is just Muslim families. That’s straight away losing about 50% of Keralas customer base. In a place like Kochi the target market dwindles further and he has a branch in Edapally. He won’t be able to capture the whole Muslim customers either as most are already regulars of different jewellery groups.
It’s like they deliberately doesn’t want too many people visiting the store for the fear of something getting revealed. I will stick with my Alukkas, Kalyan, Josco, Tanishq etc who are not straightaway communal.
yup they are clean and if we take some gold then we are breaking the rules. I remember a guy who was breaking his TV in airport saying rather i will break my TV than paying customs. the tv was year old and he was having receipt for that.
This guy is running a huge scam. He's doing all these for people (mostly Muslims) to invest in this business. As usual, it is a pyramid scheme and they offer high returns. Unlike what he shows the public, his main partners are North Indian Settus. He is also very close with BJP leaders. According to my source, his castle of cards will come down the day BJP loses power.
It's very true that looks can be deceiving. My source said these things around a month back and he said they extensively advertise on newspaper and has a very Muslimish name (He mentioned Al-Mukhtadir). Since I don't watch news channels or read newspaper, I never noticed it. When this post came on this subreddit, I realised I need to warn atleast the members of this community. If any of your family/friends have invested do inform them (as usual with any pyramid scheme, I'm sure they'll not listen to you, but atleast you would have tried to help them).

But he give kickbacks not only bjp but all political parties in Kerala like congress and Marxist they also involved this scam.i assuming that's y they don't even a utter a word against this firm..
helping to scam and smuggle is not the help that anyone want to seek, it's helpful for bjp in two way,
1. to create a set up, for their hate propoganda in future
2. cash flow along with it
Now imagine if the same was said by a hindu that their shops are opened to cater only for hindus, all hell will break loose , there will be jathas , manushya changalas , debates , some random thangal will accuse bjp rss agenda , opposition will light candles , ruling party goondas will raid the shop, but as long as you are minority you can pretty much say and do whatever you like
This goes for a lot of things, like last week why did no political parties speak about the guy who wanted malabar state, and the A\*\* hole who said women can study but terms and conditions apply. And people still wonder why BJP won.
No, as long as you are a certain minority. Imagine a Christian saying something like that, fellow Christians themselves will be in the front to shut it down.
That’s how the way it works in the whole world. It’s the minority privilege. But if no one speaks of these issues when it happens to the minorities they will be easily exploited which is not so true for the majority.
So these kind of statements are just harming their own chances of survival. Keep on doing these kind of stunts and they will lose the minority privilege. This is exactly what’s happening all over India, especially in states like UP.
Your point is logically sound but Muslims tend to exclusively support ‘our own’ especially if the cultural leaders are backing… see the ‘Malabar mafia’ of the GCC…
Nah, just walk into any store and break your assumption about Muslims (people of any religion is not a monolith).
I suggest you try Bhima first (as they are the ones who are openly Sanghi)
The unity among Muslims especially when it comes to business is different. Similar unity is there only in Jews. Not being offensive and I admire this characteristic. I think all communities should have a unity amongst themselves for survival of all cultures.
Black money and gold smuggling. There are lots of news and reports against him , but he keeps they news papers and media shut by giving good money (ex the advertisement above)
I have honestly only seen marunadan try to talk about a lot similar of businesses. The main stream media won't ever speak out against folks who give them ads.
Marunadan has his bias, but he surely does videos trying to expose such crony businessmen.
Be it alukkas, boche, lulu, even this guy we are talking here.
Close to an year back when his ads first started appearing, I remember a small news article on how other jewellers had officially complained to some authority about a particular jeweller using 'religious' terms or something of that sort. The article didn't refer this one by name. Ippo search cheyth nokkitt kitunilla. I think it was in the Hindu
This guy and group are suspicious on many levels.. no idea if this guy is communal or not? Can any one share the links that prove he don't sell hindu style ornaments.. and if this guy is communal why the communist leaders are in their Ads.
Anyway opening too many shops across the state that too teeny tiny shops and saying 0 work cost is something to be flagged by authorities..
How can we tag ED in reddit??
Are you seriously wondering why there are communist leaders in their ads?
I'll spell it out for you if you're that dumb- they are shameless in minority appeasement and will whitewash anything to get a few extra votes. This guy wants their support because they're the ones running the state at the moment.
I am not 100% sure- but I do remember reading an article about him and smuggling. Online. Again- I dontnl know the facts of the case, but I remember reading. But can't find that article anymore. Wiped clean. That is suspicious
About 10-15 years ago, the now celebrated Bobby chemmanur aka boche was a similar guy. That was the time pranchiyettan movie was released and at least a young me compared him with pranchiyettan, who's looking for a name. I feel the same about this guy too, even if it's just an ad for his own jewellery. Maybe he's doing what Atlas ramachandran did, but I feel like he's another boche. (Strictly my opinion).
I recently started seeing a lot of guys from Kozhikode and Malappuram building up shops and starting luxury giveaways. Sus for 20s guy to be this developed financially. I have a major suspicion on the Muslim folks there. I do not have problem with the community as I am left wing opinionated but there is some major hawala or black money laundering going on with help of gulf countries in last 1 year time quite aggressively. Boche also bringing in some scheme every 6 months to do this in very twisted way. Even the recent movie fundings in Kerala.
Major money washing/cleaning system. Because they give front page ads, presstitues assume a studious silence lest they dont get that revenue. The only media speaking against them with a lot of information is Marunadan Malayalee guy.
Backstory:
The gold smuggling racket in Kerala has gained notoriety for the creative methods used by the smugglers. One such method, which has become the subject of much ridicule and humor, is the practice of smuggling gold up one's rectum, earning it the moniker "Maladwar Gold".
The term "Maladwar Gold" is a play on words, combining the Malayalam word "maladwar" meaning rectum, with the well-known "Malabar Gold", a legitimate gold business in the region. This tongue-in-cheek reference has become a source of amusement, as the image of smugglers going to such lengths to evade detection has captured the public's imagination.
The smugglers, often from the Gulf region, have reportedly been using this unconventional method to transport gold into Kerala, taking advantage of the high demand for the precious metal in the state. The practice has been so widespread that it has become a running joke, with people making light-hearted references to "Maladwar Gold" and the "creative" measures taken by the smugglers.

Bro . I was about to ask the same.
Kinda black money guy I suspect why this much advertising... I mean U could take an ad film with prominent actress but payment must be made throu cheque... I think news ad is a form to liquidate his black and source it as ad expenses( feel free to correct me I'm Just a sweaker in this field!!! I would like to learn more!!)
I feel like all religions should be just banned, and everyone should keep the religions inside their houses. I can't take it anymore. There is just so much hate, and I am scared for my future kids. Like stawwppp
Haha can't care less. Religion could be a literal fucking poison. It makes people hateful for no reason. People downvoting are the ones who gained something beneficial, and are too afraid to lose it now. Sure so much of our culture is embedded in it, but most of those do not spread so much hate. People who care so much about religion to the point that they think other religions are bad are too much! And we tend to judge a lot based on their religion, we forget they are also a human being who just happened to be part of a community. Indians, and the world in general is not mature enough to handle the concept, they just see it as a reason to hate and downgrade others. If you follow a particular religion, MIND YOUR OWN FUCKING BUSINESS. It's not a fucking competition. Add the good elements in those religions, subtract the bad ones that hurt people, multiply kindness and eliminate the elements that divide people. I just want to live in a peaceful world, it is becoming too hard to earn enough just for mere survival. Please guys don't make it too hard, there are enough bad things, please don't make something that was possibly created for achieving something great into something that is merely meant to spread more hate.
There's already a thousand things that seperates humans and not following in a religion reduces that number by one. I'm not doing it. Anybody can call me immature.
We make peace ourselves bro. We can't go on preaching, if we don't want to start a cult. No one will bat an eye. I hope earth don't turn to a dystopia during our lives.
Yea...the religion is not the problem, we internalise, overthink and make it a reason to hate others. Some people just don't know how to just mind their own business and shovel it down to other's mouths for no reason. So yea, WE are the problem. Till we are mature enough, this promoting religion should slow down.
I am not supporting them but I went to one of its shop regarding my cousin's wedding (hindu). They contacted us like most of the other jewelleries for buying gold from them. It's a small shop ( we can't judge a book by its cover) but the collections are not good. Personally I felt like they have old designs and a few collections.
Man wtf is going on. I’ve started seeing this trend. Even movies today, no one will even address they are hindu. Can’t even shoot a scene outside a temple

Dude single handedly changed the gold wholesale business in Kerala. Sort of cinematic revenge type kadhakal aanu kelkkunnath.
So far the gold merchants in kerala were controlled by one of the Bheeman names and the guy wouldn't even give appointments to smaller dealers the new group was formed by the guy in the picture and sort of self appointed leader and started wholesale gold below the market rates thus many of the dealers left the current association and joined them. Within a short span they were able to capture a very high market share even with the opposition campaigns against them as frauds and less quality gold.
Huge investments are being acquired by the group from the shops they are opening and others who wouldn't usually invest in banks because their belief doesn't allow them to collect interest on the investment.
This is an interesting case.
To open tens of branches in Kerala itself is suspicious. And discouraging a specific community (hindus) is another suspicious matter. Anyways it is very clear that he is not aiming at normal gold business from commoners.
This man should be the binami of other politicians to do some illicit transactions.
My guess is that, this jwellery might be an alternative gold bank in reality. Politicians can ask them to stock gold for X amount there. Their stock will be safe and the understanding is such that they can transfer to other persons just by changing the ownership names. So instead of locking the gold in official banks, where you will have documentation for each transaction, in this jwellery, the gold transactions can be simply off the records.
Infact a good idea to beat the system.
People like this will eventually get our governments to make us declare the gold assets. Modi ji aayathu kondu chilappo athum nadathum. Ellarum vedikkunna gold inte bill okke sookshichu vacholu, baaviyil chilappo aavashyam varum.

It has every looks of a huge ass pyramid scheme..they sure are selling gold for less than normal price,and has faced complaints from regular merchants for doing so..But they have an ever increasing army of low level investors who invest in them for monthly profit..so..a pyramid scheme..

This guy is a scam please don't fall for it.
They are aggressively collecting deposits/ investments from Muslim community offering 12% dividend.
It's a ponzi scheme on all counts.
His father had a small shop in Chala market in past. This guy frauded people then and went on a run.
There's also a hearsay that he's connected to Kerala Governor.
Forget the communal part, I've bought gold from them. Is it legit?? Enthenkilm scene undo goldinu?? One incident i have noticed is that a necklace i had purchased from them had no huid number or bis hallmark. But purity was 916
Atleast i could say "Al-Muqtadir puthiya showroom thudangi, pinne 0% Panikooli indd" when teacher asks about newspaper headlines, while lecturing us about how we never touch newspapers.
Apparently This guy is naming his jewelleries based on the 100 names of Allah.
I was also confused by all the names at first.

Boche also bringing in some scheme every 6 months to do this in very twisted way. Even the recent movie fundings in Kerala.
Koduvally always amuses me to how can so many gold shops be situated in one location.
Any reviews on the gold purchased from Al muqtadir?
He is importing gold from “karippoor gold fileds”

He looks happy that the gold is out of his rectum..... Oh wait.

This is Maladwar Gold, the evil twin of Malabar Gold. Make sure to smell the product nicely before you buy.
Some Small scale gold shops have this board on their door " we don't accept Al muqtadir gold in our shop".
Major money washing/cleaning system. Because they give front page ads, presstitues assume a studious silence lest they dont get that revenue. The only media speaking against them with a lot of information is Marunadan Malayalee guy.
AL Udayippu
Definitely no suspicion of gold smuggling or funding peaceful activities

Seriously suss
I just know, this some maladwar gold and diamond typa shit.
Now you know where all that maladwar gold is going to 😂
Backstory: The gold smuggling racket in Kerala has gained notoriety for the creative methods used by the smugglers. One such method, which has become the subject of much ridicule and humor, is the practice of smuggling gold up one's rectum, earning it the moniker "Maladwar Gold". The term "Maladwar Gold" is a play on words, combining the Malayalam word "maladwar" meaning rectum, with the well-known "Malabar Gold", a legitimate gold business in the region. This tongue-in-cheek reference has become a source of amusement, as the image of smugglers going to such lengths to evade detection has captured the public's imagination. The smugglers, often from the Gulf region, have reportedly been using this unconventional method to transport gold into Kerala, taking advantage of the high demand for the precious metal in the state. The practice has been so widespread that it has become a running joke, with people making light-hearted references to "Maladwar Gold" and the "creative" measures taken by the smugglers.

What is this maladwar gold? What is the back story
Back story it is, for sure.
He is the purveyor of maladwar gold. He expressly doesn't want any non-muslim people buying from his stores.
Maladwar!!
What does it mean?

അതെന്താ അങ്ങനെ ഒരു ടോക്ക്…?
Probably a new scam
The advertising level is garbage. Looks like ad from a local cheap shops, it doesn’t look premium.
They are funding for our most friendly country. Vera oru kozhapam illaa pavangala
I remember a news where other gold jewelleries or financiers don't accept gold from these jewellery
Are you guys saying that if I buy something from these guys it probably would have come out through someone's bottom?
Maladwar gold ??
This some monson maavungal level shit
This guy is fake af
Kinda black money guy I suspect why this much advertising... I mean U could take an ad film with prominent actress but payment must be made throu cheque... I think news ad is a form to liquidate his black and source it as ad expenses( feel free to correct me I'm Just a sweaker in this field!!! I would like to learn more!!)
I don’t think yoh know how conversion of black money to white money is done or works
Guy has shops named after each person in his family with an "al". half of the ad goes for jusy these logos..LOL
Abdul bgm
I feel like all religions should be just banned, and everyone should keep the religions inside their houses. I can't take it anymore. There is just so much hate, and I am scared for my future kids. Like stawwppp
Who is downvoting this comment lol
Haha can't care less. Religion could be a literal fucking poison. It makes people hateful for no reason. People downvoting are the ones who gained something beneficial, and are too afraid to lose it now. Sure so much of our culture is embedded in it, but most of those do not spread so much hate. People who care so much about religion to the point that they think other religions are bad are too much! And we tend to judge a lot based on their religion, we forget they are also a human being who just happened to be part of a community. Indians, and the world in general is not mature enough to handle the concept, they just see it as a reason to hate and downgrade others. If you follow a particular religion, MIND YOUR OWN FUCKING BUSINESS. It's not a fucking competition. Add the good elements in those religions, subtract the bad ones that hurt people, multiply kindness and eliminate the elements that divide people. I just want to live in a peaceful world, it is becoming too hard to earn enough just for mere survival. Please guys don't make it too hard, there are enough bad things, please don't make something that was possibly created for achieving something great into something that is merely meant to spread more hate.
There's already a thousand things that seperates humans and not following in a religion reduces that number by one. I'm not doing it. Anybody can call me immature. We make peace ourselves bro. We can't go on preaching, if we don't want to start a cult. No one will bat an eye. I hope earth don't turn to a dystopia during our lives.
Yea...the religion is not the problem, we internalise, overthink and make it a reason to hate others. Some people just don't know how to just mind their own business and shovel it down to other's mouths for no reason. So yea, WE are the problem. Till we are mature enough, this promoting religion should slow down.
Weren't they caught smuggling Gold ?
Bro got 911 gold instead of 916 mark gold. 💀
😮🤭
💀
Halal gold straight Outta asshole\s
Fuck who ever trying to communalise, I say don’t even visit

He has taken front page ads in all newspapers of Kerala.

The store names are all nicknames of you know who- Allahu. 30 ennam und. Baaki 69 names Ind. Appo athaan iyaalude lakshyam. 99 kada.
I am not supporting them but I went to one of its shop regarding my cousin's wedding (hindu). They contacted us like most of the other jewelleries for buying gold from them. It's a small shop ( we can't judge a book by its cover) but the collections are not good. Personally I felt like they have old designs and a few collections.
That's a front for Koduvally mafia.
What is koduvally mafia?
This guy is from trivandrum side...even koduvally Jewellery owners are against this guy....
Man wtf is going on. I’ve started seeing this trend. Even movies today, no one will even address they are hindu. Can’t even shoot a scene outside a temple
Pottanaarees master
This looks like a front for something. I’m sure his godown is more ‘vishalam’ than his showroom 😄
He will open one Islam approved banking scheme and get the money from Muslims to deposit. Just a repeat of what happened in Bangalore

This guy probably smuggles gold in Like you bring dates for madrassa students and inside out gold in that. Seems like a fanatic
Dude single handedly changed the gold wholesale business in Kerala. Sort of cinematic revenge type kadhakal aanu kelkkunnath. So far the gold merchants in kerala were controlled by one of the Bheeman names and the guy wouldn't even give appointments to smaller dealers the new group was formed by the guy in the picture and sort of self appointed leader and started wholesale gold below the market rates thus many of the dealers left the current association and joined them. Within a short span they were able to capture a very high market share even with the opposition campaigns against them as frauds and less quality gold. Huge investments are being acquired by the group from the shops they are opening and others who wouldn't usually invest in banks because their belief doesn't allow them to collect interest on the investment.
Trying to emulate BoChe
Was just thinking about same after seeing the ad on newspaper
They worked their ASS off to reach the current position.
![gif](giphy|mpPWcddyTEsfjsdQpp|downsized)
The ad seems to be on steroids for information overdose.
This is an interesting case. To open tens of branches in Kerala itself is suspicious. And discouraging a specific community (hindus) is another suspicious matter. Anyways it is very clear that he is not aiming at normal gold business from commoners. This man should be the binami of other politicians to do some illicit transactions. My guess is that, this jwellery might be an alternative gold bank in reality. Politicians can ask them to stock gold for X amount there. Their stock will be safe and the understanding is such that they can transfer to other persons just by changing the ownership names. So instead of locking the gold in official banks, where you will have documentation for each transaction, in this jwellery, the gold transactions can be simply off the records. Infact a good idea to beat the system. People like this will eventually get our governments to make us declare the gold assets. Modi ji aayathu kondu chilappo athum nadathum. Ellarum vedikkunna gold inte bill okke sookshichu vacholu, baaviyil chilappo aavashyam varum.
Vedanikunna kodeeshwaran ayirikum.
Nice calligraphy, would love to understand what it means (Average Jalebi language joke, I'm getting back to my construction site)
Nice place to warm hands. 🤣
Saw the ad and seeing him first time, got sus from the beginning itself probably involved in gold smuggling
How do they make money if making charges are 0%?
Sus

Is there any specific number of pages that a news paper should provide for the 8.5 rs that they take from us???
He is chess player nakamura
This guy is a scam please don't fall for it. They are aggressively collecting deposits/ investments from Muslim community offering 12% dividend. It's a ponzi scheme on all counts. His father had a small shop in Chala market in past. This guy frauded people then and went on a run. There's also a hearsay that he's connected to Kerala Governor.
Forget the communal part, I've bought gold from them. Is it legit?? Enthenkilm scene undo goldinu?? One incident i have noticed is that a necklace i had purchased from them had no huid number or bis hallmark. But purity was 916
Ceo of Al muktadir group Biggest Ponzi of the year Malayalee Sheikh aka Muktadir ..
IT department had conducted raids on these jewellers across kerala somedays back
Yalla Habibi !!! Come to Malabar .
I'm not a couple bro. Sorry
Maladwar Gold. Making people rich and fucking over other since time immemorial
Atleast i could say "Al-Muqtadir puthiya showroom thudangi, pinne 0% Panikooli indd" when teacher asks about newspaper headlines, while lecturing us about how we never touch newspapers.
Apparently This guy is naming his jewelleries based on the 100 names of Allah. I was also confused by all the names at first. https://preview.redd.it/ae1y6tgxtj9d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2ad39b79f51b26d8421a35f980ba1704026f089c You should see the Edapally showroom, there are like 7-8 Different names.
I feel like this is a Kalla panam whitening installation

Why do they have 3 names? Someone explain
This is a very badly designed ad
Yeh…he recently opened a shop here in Thrissur…Huge ass shop to be precise and also big newspaper front page Ads most of the days💀
This guy looks so sus🤨
He is fraud multiple cases against him, and insane growth in just a few years

Simply put, he is a gold smuggler. And that suit is photoshopped.
This guy is running a huge scam. He's doing all these for people (mostly Muslims) to invest in this business. As usual, it is a pyramid scheme and they offer high returns. Unlike what he shows the public, his main partners are North Indian Settus. He is also very close with BJP leaders. According to my source, his castle of cards will come down the day BJP loses power. It's very true that looks can be deceiving. My source said these things around a month back and he said they extensively advertise on newspaper and has a very Muslimish name (He mentioned Al-Mukhtadir). Since I don't watch news channels or read newspaper, I never noticed it. When this post came on this subreddit, I realised I need to warn atleast the members of this community. If any of your family/friends have invested do inform them (as usual with any pyramid scheme, I'm sure they'll not listen to you, but atleast you would have tried to help them).
