The Faridabad police has nabbed a group of cybercriminals who allegedly misappropriated the Rebate of State and Central Taxes and Levies licenses to dupe Sonam Kapoor’s father-in-law Harish Ahuja’s firm Shahi Export Factory
The group had purportedly been using his forged Digital Signature Certificate to transfer the ROSCTL licenses given to Ahuja’s firms to fake firms and encashing them.
The police said the fraudsters were highly-sophisticated and they had secured a 154 ROSCTLs worth ₹27.61 crore of Ahuja’s firm and had been transferring them to fake and fictitious firms opened by them and encashing them.
The police had been investigating the matter on the complaint of Ahuja’s company since 8 months and kept it under the wraps so as to guage the activities of fraudsters.
Faridabad police has arrested a total of nine accused from different places in the country, including Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and Karnataka.
