Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): City’s fruit trader was allegedly duped of Rs 83 lakh by a Mumbai-based merchant, police said, adding that a case was registered against the accused on Monday. A police team will leave for Mumbai soon to arrest the accused, they said.

According to Nishatpura police station TI Rupesh Dubey, complainant Zainul Aafdeen (54), a resident of Jehangirabad area and a fruit trader, approached police on Monday, stating that he often visited Mumbai for work, where he befriended another trader named Danish Khan, a resident of Navi Mumbai.

The duo used to talk to each other over phone regularly. Danish had told Zainul earlier to supply fruits costing Rs 1.4 crore to him in Mumbai, which would sell well and both of them would earn profit. Zainul agreed, and sent the fruits to him in February this year.

However, Danish paid only Rs 21.5 lakh to him. When Zainul asked for the remaining amount, Danish avoided the topic. A few days ago, when Zainul went to Mumbai and met Danish, asking him for money, Danish grew furious and allegedly assaulted him. Zainul returned to Bhopal and lodged a police complaint on Monday.
