In a major breakthrough against financial crimes, Delhi Police’s Crime Branch has arrested Mohsin Mohammad, a 36-year-old conman from New Rajendra Nagar, for orchestrating a massive fraud worth over ₹1.37 crore and $80,000. The scam revolved around fake promises of lucrative returns from an international meat export business.
The case, registered under FIR No. 137/25 at Crime Branch Police Station with charges under sections 318(4)/316/61(2) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, was filed by complainant Arjun Arora. Mohsin posed as a high-profile exporter dealing with Dubai and other global markets, luring victims with visions of enormous profits. He convinced Arjun and others to invest heavily, extracting ₹67.70 lakh directly from Arjun’s father’s bank account via transfers.
Further investigations revealed Mohsin’s accomplices in Dubai facilitated the transfer of $80,000, equivalent to about ₹67 lakh. He issued cheques from Equitas Small Finance Bank and Axis Bank accounts but deliberately ensured insufficient funds, bouncing them repeatedly. Similar tactics duped other victims like Parvinder Singh and T.R. Meghwal, after which Mohsin went into hiding, evading police summons.
Acting on a tip-off on February 20, 2026, about his presence in New Rajendra Nagar, a team led by SI Mohit, SI Dinesh, ASI Deepak, HC Pankaj, and HC Ashwini conducted a raid on a double-story residential block. Confirming his identity, they arrested him in full compliance with Supreme Court guidelines, notifying his family immediately.
Mohsin’s criminal history includes prior involvement in FIR No. 154/2021, underscoring his long-standing engagement in frauds. The Crime Branch is now pursuing his associates and working to recover the defrauded amounts. Deputy Commissioner of Police (Crime Branch) Vikram Singh hailed the operation as a testament to relentless efforts against complex financial scams, urging the public to verify investment opportunities thoroughly.
This arrest sends a strong message to fraudsters exploiting business facades for deceit, reinforcing Delhi Police’s commitment to safeguarding citizens’ hard-earned money.
