BTC scam

After scamming people, part of the total amount had been transferred to an account belonging to Ma Annapurna Traders of Indore, Madhya Pradesh, and then withdrawn through a self-cheque.

Further study of this account showed that lakhs of rupees were deposited in this account and routed through a few accounts, one of them belonging to M/S Johari Traders. The money transacted between Ma Annapurna Traders and Johari Traders would cross Rs 10 lakh in a single day, raising suspicions of a nexus.

The cops arrested Gaurav Namdev, proprietor of Ma Annapurna Traders, and Pawan Johari and Dipak Gangwal alias Namdev, the proprietors of Johari Traders.

Preliminary interrogation suggests that they have defrauded a number of people, and an examination of the laptops and mobile phones seized from their possession corroborate this fact. They will be produced before the CJM, Ujjain.
