One more held in DDA flat scam
The Economic Offences Wing (EOW) of the crime branch of Delhi Police has arrested a financier for his alleged involvement in the DDA
Housing Scheme scam that was unearthed last year.
According to Amulya Patnaik, joint commissioner (crime), this is the ninth arrest made in the case so far. "Eight other accused had been arrested earlier. They are Laxmi Narain Meena, Deepak Kumar, Mithan Lal Gautam, Raju Ram, Vijay Pal, Surender Singh, Jeet Ram and Vijay Kumar Verma. They all are presently in judicial custody,'' said Patnaik.
During investigation into the case, it was found that one Rakesh Boyet a property dealer and resident of Uttam Nagar had financed Rs 4 lakhs to the accused M L Gautam and had also given Rs 9 lakhs through his partner Raju Ram. Boyet was aware of the entire scheme and had actively participated in it.
"Boyet went underground soon after the media reported the DDA scam. Later, Proclaimed Offender proceedings were initiated against him and a proclamation notice was issued by the court,'' said a senior police officer.
According to police, accused Boyet is also facing trial for torturing and killing his wife. "His in-laws came to know that he was an absconder in the DDA scam case after they came across a proclamation notice published in a newspaper. They spotted Boyet near Rohini court complex on October 15 and informed the police. He was arrested and produced in court from where he was sent to judicial custody,'' added the EOW official.
EOW got his production warrant issued in the DDA Housing Scheme case and took the accused on police remand on October 20.
