New Delhi: The brother of Al Falah University chairman Javed Siddiqui, who is under investigation in connection with the Delhi blasts case, has been arrested by Madhya Pradesh Police in a decades-old financial fraud case in Mhow.
Hamood Ahmed Siddiqui was taken into custody from Hyderabad on Sunday. He is accused of operating a fake private bank in Mhow in 2000 and luring hundreds of residents with promises of doubling their deposits, an official said.
“Mhow sub-divisional police officer Lalit Singh Sikarwar said Hamood fled with his family soon after the scam came to light prompting authorities to search for him for decades. He was arrested in Hyderabad yesterday.”
