Pakistani nationals flee after defrauding Dubai woman of Rs90m

Lahore: A Pakistani national, along with his accomplices, fled to Pakistan after allegedly defrauding a Dubai-based woman of over 90 million rupees.

Interpol, acting on a request from the woman and Dubai police, sought the assistance of the Pakistani government in arresting the suspects.

According to the reports, Nisha Gulab Das, a resident of Dubai, informed the Dubai Police that Adnan Shah, a Pakistani resident, along with Ahsen Khan Swati, Asif Mansori, and two female accomplices, had been conducting property-related business with her for several years.

Nisha claimed she invested 1.2 million dirhams in the business, in exchange for which Adnan Shah and his associates provided two guaranteed cheques, each worth 575,000 dirhams.

Nisha further alleged that after receiving the money, Adnan and his accomplices closed their office and disappeared, and the cheques they provided subsequently bounced.

Dubai Police confirmed that suspect Adnan Shah and his accomplices escaped to Pakistan. Nisha stated that Interpol was contacted for their arrest and that the process of issuing a red notice has been initiated.

In response to a request from Dubai Police, Interpol requested the Pakistani authorities to investigate the matter and assist in apprehending the criminals.
