Kohima: In a recent incident, authorities from Nagaland Police successfully arrested two suspects in Nagpur, Maharashtra. These individuals are believed to have defrauded a doctor from Nagaland of Rs 55 lakh. The accused, identified as Amul Prakash Tong (40) and Prateek Jairam Nikhade (35), both residents of Nagpur, are purportedly involved in a scheme centered on the sale of sports equipment. Reports indicate that the duo ran a sales office for sports equipment and furniture in Nagpur. The incident traces back to 2021 when a doctor from Dimapur expressed interest in acquiring materials for a game zone venture. Following the agreement, the doctor and the accused struck a deal, with the former paying Rs 55 lakh upfront for the supplies. However, the promised materials were never delivered, prompting the doctor to file a complaint with the Dimapur Police. 
Upon receipt of the complaint, the Dimapur Police commenced an investigation, which culminated in the filing of a fraud case against Tong and Nikhade. 
On Saturday, with the cooperation of the Nagpur Police, the suspects were apprehended. Post their arrest, the duo was granted transit remand to the Nagaland Police by the court.
