1 min read
Rahul Paswan, the smooth-talking property fraudster originally from Bihar, is finally behind bars after Delhi Police’s Crime Branch outmaneuvered him. Proclaimed a fugitive in a Laxmi Nagar case dated February 3, 2023, he evaded capture until a tip-off changed everything.
Inspector Sunil Kumar Kalkhande spearheaded the team under ACP Pankaj Arora’s guidance, monitoring Paswan relentlessly. The arrest unfolded at Kashmiri Gate parking lot, thwarting his bid to exit Delhi.
Hiding in Faridabad for over a year, Paswan’s scams involved fraudulent property investments. He earned victims’ trust as a dealer, paraded fake flats and plots, grabbed down payments, and fled. Laxmi Nagar logs three FIRs against him, with echoes in Gurugram and Faridabad.
Fluent in English and holding a degree, Paswan honed his cons in Laxmi Nagar, scaled up in Gurugram, then went underground. His operations preyed on the vulnerable housing market.
Ongoing probes aim to dismantle his entire operation. This high-profile bust underscores Delhi Police’s vigilance against economic offenders, advising wariness in property dealings.
