The case, originally filed in February 2025, took a dramatic turn when new charges were added following further investigation. The complainant had purchased a Maruti Suzuki WagonR three years ago with a loan but faced financial difficulties, preventing her from completing the repayment. To resolve the debt, she transferred the vehicle to Bijaya Kumar Agrawalla (39) under the agreement that he would pay off the outstanding loan. However, Agrawalla allegedly failed to settle the payments and, instead, sold the car to another buyer in Lakshmisagar without informing the complainant.
After tracking the vehicle, the police located and seized it from one Prakash Parija. Further investigations revealed that Agrawalla had vacated his rented residence in November 2024, making it difficult to trace him.
Thanks to reliable information, police eventually located Agrawalla and arrested him. He confessed to his involvement in the fraudulent sale. Authorities suspect Agrawalla may have been part of other similar financial scams in the past.
The WagonR has been recovered, and investigations continue as the police explore additional possible offences linked to Agrawalla’s actions.
