Indian fugitive deported from UAE in bank fraud case

The CBI has secured the deportation of fugitive Udit Khullar from the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in connection with a multi-crore bank fraud case.

Khullar is accused of orchestrating a criminal conspiracy to obtain fraudulent bank loans. Investigations reveal that he, along with co-conspirators, secured Rs 4.55 crore through three home loans by submitting forged property documents to both nationalised and private banks. The properties used as collateral were allegedly not owned by him.

Khullar, wanted by the Delhi Police, was brought back to India on August 1 via Indira Gandhi International Airport, Delhi. His return was facilitated by the International Police Cooperation Unit (IPCU) of the CBI in collaboration with the National Central Bureau (NCB), Abu Dhabi, through INTERPOL channels.

According to officials, Khullar was geo-located in the UAE, following sustained efforts by CBI through INTERPOL coordination. He was deported following his arrest by UAE authorities.
