Delhi Police Arrest Man for Rs 18 Crore Bank Fraud After Nine Years
Delhi Police arrested Sanjeev Dixit, also known as Sanjay Sharma, 53, for allegedly defrauding multiple banks of over Rs 18 crore through forged property documents and impersonation. The 2013 case involved fraudulent transfer of property in east Delhi's Vivek Vihar using a forged sale deed and equitable mortgage to secure loans. Dixit had evaded arrest since 2017 after escaping Uttar Pradesh Police custody and was declared a proclaimed offender. Most loan accounts became non-performing assets, causing losses to banks.
