Delhi’s Crime Branch scored a decisive victory in combating investment scams by apprehending 36-year-old Mohsin Mohammad from New Rajendra Nagar. The fraudster allegedly swindled victims out of ₹1.37 crore plus $80,000 through a bogus meat export venture promising sky-high returns.
FIR 137/25 invokes Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita sections 318(4), 316, and 61(2), based on Arjun Arora’s complaint. Mohsin masqueraded as an international meat trader with operations in Dubai, enticing investors with tales of massive profits. He siphoned ₹67.70 lakh from Arjun’s father’s account and arranged $80,000 via Dubai contacts—totaling roughly ₹2 crore in losses.
His modus operandi involved issuing dud cheques from Equitas Small Finance and Axis Bank, claiming fund shortages when encashed. Victims including Parvinder Singh and T.R. Meghwal fell prey to the same scheme before Mohsin vanished, dodging investigation.
On February 20, 2026, precise intelligence pinpointed his hideout. A crack team comprising SI Mohit, SI Dinesh, ASI Deepak, HC Pankaj, and HC Ashwini raided the location under senior officers’ directives. The arrest followed meticulous verification, adhering to Supreme Court protocols with family notification.
Background checks exposed Mohsin’s earlier role in FIR 154/2021, marking him as a serial offender. Ongoing probes target co-conspirators and asset recovery. DCP Vikram Singh described the bust as a milestone in tackling intricate financial frauds, advising caution against unsolicited high-return schemes.
As economic crimes evolve, such swift actions by law enforcement restore public faith and deter potential scammers preying on entrepreneurial aspirations.
