Car showroom manager held for deceiving bizman of Rs 1cr
Bhubaneswar: Infocity police here on Monday arrested a car showroom manager for allegedly deceiving a businessman of Rs 1 crore under the pretext of facilitating a luxury vehicle purchase. Police have identified the accused as Sambit Panda, 32, who resides in Sailashree Vihar. In 2024, the victim, Rohit Roshan Mohanty, a local businessman, filed a complaint in a local court stating that Panda had collected Rs 1 crore from him for the car purchase, but reneged on the agreement. Following the court's instructions, police registered a case on Sept 7, 2024. During investigation, police came to know that the victim came in contact with the accused in 2023. Panda offered to assist Mohanty in acquiring the luxury vehicle at an optimal price. After receiving the substantial sum from the prospective buyer, the accused stopped communication with him. "When the victim requested for his money back, the accused issued severe threats. The accused evaded arrest for several months," said the police officer.
