Sikar: Sikar Cops Arrest 4 Kingpins Involved In ₹12k Crore Fraud | Jaipur News
Jaipur: More than 70,000 investors heaved a sigh of relief on Saturday when a team of Sikar police arrested the four main promoters of Nexa green company, who are the main accused in a case of nearly Rs 12,000 crore fraud.
At least 75 FIRs have been lodged against 13 people in various police stations in Sikar, Jhunjhunu, Churu, Bikaner and Jaipur since they fled with the invested money of various investors. In this scheme the investors were allured with higher returns and returns on weekly and fortnightly basis by showing properties at Dholera in Gujarat by the accused.
A team of Sikar police arrested the accused identified as Subash Birjaniya, Ranveer Birjaniya, Upendra Birjaniya and Amar Chand Dhaka from Gujarat.
“Since the cases were lodged against them they kept moving from one state to another. They had visited Delhi, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Tamilnadu, Maharashtra and Gujarat. Though they were never stationed at a single place, they continued to operate their bank accounts,” Karan Sharma, superintendent of police, Sikar, told TOI.
“All of them are the kingpins who had opened their offices in Sikar, Jaipur, Jhunjhunu, Churu, Bikaner and a few other districts, where they promised good returns on investment at Dholera smart city Gujarat. They had their website in which they used to give testimonials of the company, especially how beneficial it is to invest in it,” added Sharma.
The fraud came to light, when on February 1, a complainant, Dilip Singh along with 21 others had lodged a case of cheating at Udyog Nagar police station in Sikar.
“We got an initial tip off when we found that the accused were moving from Bengaluru to Gujarat on February 25. Since then our teams kept chasing them. Finally we got a breakthrough when they were found at Charoti toll plaza on national highway 48 in Maharashtra. We have seized mobile phones, ATM cards and Rs 9.80 lakh cash from their possession,” he added.
