MUMBAI: The Mumbai police's Economic Offences Wing arrested a man from Delhi for allegedly procuring a loan of Rs 3.5 crore fraudulently in the name of a businessman, police said on Monday.
The accused, identified as Goregaon-resident Sameer Manoranjan Das (43), was on the run for the past three years and was nabbed from a luxury hotel in Dwarka area of New Delhi last Sunday, an official said.
