<p data-start="58" data-end="328"><span style="font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;">In a major breakthrough, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), in collaboration with INTERPOL and UAE authorities, has successfully brought back Upavan Pavan Jain, a prime accused in a Rs 3.66 crore real estate fraud case registered in Gujarat.</span></p>
<p data-start="330" data-end="666"><span style="font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;">Jain, who had been absconding and residing in the UAE, was deported from Dubai and landed at Ahmedabad International Airport on June 20. His extradition marks the conclusion of an extensive international operation led by the CBI&rsquo;s International Police Cooperation Unit (IPCU), with support from the National Central Bureau in Abu Dhabi.</span></p>
<p data-start="668" data-end="1061"><span style="font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;">Jain was wanted by Gujarat Police in a case lodged at Adajan Police Station, Surat, involving criminal conspiracy, impersonation, cheating, and forgery of valuable securities. As per the case details, Jain, then operating as a real estate agent, collaborated with others to forge documents, impersonate genuine property owners, and deceive a buyer into purchasing four properties fraudulently.</span></p>
<p data-start="1063" data-end="1250"><span style="font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;">The accused and his accomplices went as far as creating fake identification to open bank accounts in the names of real property owners, eventually duping the victim out of Rs 3,66,73,000.</span></p>
<p data-start="1252" data-end="1533"><span style="font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;">A Red Notice was issued against Jain by INTERPOL on March 6, 2023, following a request from Gujarat Police. After his arrest in the UAE, Indian authorities moved swiftly through the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) and the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) to facilitate his return.</span></p>
<p data-start="1535" data-end="1740"><span style="font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;">The CBI, acting as the National Central Bureau for INTERPOL in India, coordinated the operation through its BHARATPOL platform, which links domestic agencies with INTERPOL&rsquo;s global law enforcement network.</span></p>
<p data-start="1742" data-end="1851" data-is-last-node="" data-is-only-node=""><span style="font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;">Over the past few years, this collaboration has led to the return of more than 100 fugitives wanted in India.</span></p>
