According to the complaint, Agarwal's actions caused financial losses to several innocent buyers who had invested in the project. The police took Agarwal into custody from jail, where he was already being held in connection with another case, and presented him in court. The court has granted fresh police custody for two days to facilitate further investigation into the matter. It is worth noting that Agarwal's son was involved in a fatal car accident in Kalyani Nagar, and both father and son were granted bail in a case of kidnapping their family driver, who was allegedly pressured to take blame for the crash.
The latest development is a major blow to Agarwal's real estate empire, which has been accused of fraudulent activities in the past.
