Mumbai Man Arrested in Gujarat for Rs 30 Crore Stock Market Fraud
Roshan Bhushan Sheth, 56, was arrested in Gujarat for allegedly defrauding 42 investors across Maharashtra and Gujarat of over Rs 30 crore through a stock market scam. Using three aliases and a wig to conceal his identity, Sheth promised monthly returns of up to 5%, showing fabricated profit statements. He funded a lavish lifestyle with luxury flats, cars, and watches. The fraud surfaced after a complaint by Sanjay Hiralal Shah, whose family lost Rs 10.81 crore. The Economic Offences Wing arrested Sheth following surveillance in Valsad.
