The Economic Offence Wing of the Delhi Police had arrested the senior Bindra from his sprawling farmhouse in Mohali Thursday following the order of a Delhi Court.

A few days ago, a Delhi Court had issued a non-bailable warrant in connection with two cases lodged against him in November 2006 and February 2007 in the Connaught Place police station.

He is accused of cheating two financial firms – one private bank and another a finance company – with the tune of Rs.9.31 crore.

A private bank ‘IndusInd Bank’ and a private financial company ‘Apple India Financial Services’ had filed a complaint against senior Bindra for not repaying the loan amounts of Rs.5-crore and Rs.4.31-crore.

The victims have also made a complaint against Bindra for selling that land on which basis he had received the loans.

According to hospital sources, he is still under continuous examination.
