The Indian Express reported that the notes were recovered after a bullion firm owner, Mehul Thakkar, was duped for Rs 1.60 crore. A case has been registered against unidentified persons in Ahmedabad. As per the report, Mehul Thakkar told the police that a few people wanted to buy 2100 grams of gold and wanted it delivered to the city’s Navrangpura area. He sent the gold via his employee, who handed over the gold to the two accused, and in return, received a plastic cover. They claimed the cover was filled with cash worth Rs 1.3 Cr.
The accused people excused themselves by claiming that they were off to arrange the remaining Rs 30 lakhs from an adjoining shop and ran. The fake notes were discovered by one of the employees of the bullion firm. The police is investigating the case.
