One Mercedes E-280 car and one licensed pistol of .32 bore with 5 live cartridges, have been recovered from his possession. INFORMATION, TEAM AND OPERATION: INTRODUCTION: The Crime Branch of Delhi Police has arrested the fugitive JVG Group CMD Vijay Kumar Sharma @ VK Sharma A secret input was received in Anti Extortion Cell of Crime Branch regarding movements of this wanted, rewardee and high profile fugitive Vijay Kumar Sharma. He was frequently changing his locations in Mumbai, Agra and Delhi. To develop this information, and to nab this high profile fugitive and very clever absconding criminal, a team led by Inspr Dig Vijay Singh and comprising of Inspr Sandeep Malhotra, SIs Arun Dev Nehra, Naresh Sangwan, Pramod Kumar, Rajbir, HCs Shiv Veer, Amit, Devender, Brahmpal, Yashpal, Pawan, Sanjay, Sandeep, Mahabir, Om Prakash, Ramesh Chander, Surendra, Rakesh, Cts Rajeev Sahrawat, Pravindra, Sandeep Nara, Neeraj Pandey, Ajeet, Rajbir, Naresh Kumar and W/Ct Santosh was constituted under close supervision of ACP Hoshiyar Singh and guidance of Addl DCP Bhisham Singh. On 13.05.2013, acting on a specific input, a trap was laid near Kailash Colony Metro Station but the accused who was driving a Mercedes car No. DL-2CQ-3467 flee from the spot on noticing the police party. A chase was ensued and the car of the accused was intercepted near on Bhairon Road, New Delhi. HCs Devender, Shiv Veer and Sanjay Kumar, without caring for their lives, caught hold of the accused who tried to fled from the spot. HC Shiv Veer and HC Devender caught hold of the accused from the driver side in running car and took out vehicle keys, while HC Sanjay entered the car from the other side and overpowered the accused Vijay Kumar Sharma. The accused was thus successfully apprehended from Bhairon Road near Pragati Maidan at about 5:30 pm from a Mercedes E-280 car. On his personal search, one licensed .32 bore pistol and 5 live cartridges were recovered from his possession. On interrogation, the accused revealed his involvement in several cases of cheating amounting to a thousand crore. He duped lacs of people by floating more than 17 companies with their branches all over India and luring general public. INTERROGATION: During interrogation, the accused revealed that he (JVG group) had acquired Orkay's polyester yarn plant and a part of its office space in Mumbai in March 1997 through a tripartite agreement with financial institutions led by IDBI and the Mehras who controlled Orkay. As per the agreement, JVG agreed to pay the Mehras Rs 98 crore in cash and take on the Rs 130 crore liability to the various FIs. JVG paid off Rs 14 crore to the Mehras in March 1997. According to the schedule worked out by the FIs, JVG agreed to pay the second instalment in the first week of September 1997. Although JVG could not meet the deadline, it was allowed to run the plant on job-work basis from September 1997. The understanding was that JVG would pay up by the end of September. However, JVG failed to meet the end-September deadline as well and Orkay sought the intervention of IDBI to take possession of the plant. Production at the plant was suspended in October 1997. Following this, the agreement between the Mehras, JVG and the FIs became null and void. JVGˇ¦s troubles started in June 1997, after the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) asked JVG Finance to refund the Rs 45 crore it had raised from a public issue in March 1997. A day after the issue had opened, RBI issued a show-cause notice asking why JVG Finance should not be barred from accepting deposits as the group companies had already exceeded their deposit limits. By the time RBI conditionally cleared the issue after assurances from Sharma, the 70-day stipulated period for listing the shares had passed. In October 1997, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) banned all non-banking financial companies (NBFCs) of the JVG Group of companies i.e. JVG Finance, JVG Leasing and JVG Securities - from accepting deposits from the public as they were found short of following the RBI guidelines. Soon after, JVG downed the shutters of several of its offices in small towns of Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh and Bihar. The closing of the offices created a panic among the depositors and strong criticism against the group came out in the media. Several cases were registered against Vijay Kumar Sharma and his company, in Delhi and all over India. Following this, Economic Offences Wing of the Crime Branch arrested Sharma from Mumbai. In June 1999, after 16 months in jail, Sharma was granted bail by the Honˇ¦ble Supreme Court of India. In the year 2005-06, the accused Vijay Kumar Sharma once again cheated a large number of people by promising them residential accommodation by incorporating M/s Vian Infrastructure Limited and M/s PSG Developers & Engineers Limited. They collected huge sums to the tune of Rs. 500 crores from general public and later on he once again vanished from the scene. He was declared a proclaimed offender in the cases related to M/s Vian Infrastructure Limited in the year 2011. There are 03 cases registered in respect of M/s Vian Infrastructure Limited and 07 cases registered in respect of M/s PSG Developers & Engineers Limited, which are as under:- 1. FIR No. 106 dt. 25.6.07 u/s 409/420/120B IPC PS Parliament Street. 2. FIR No. 135 dt. 03.08.07 u/s 409/420/120B IPC PS Parliament Street. 3.

Vijay Kumar Sharma was not attending the courts after 2010 and he was declared proclaimed offender by the Honˇ¦ble court of ACMM/New Delhi on 02.05.2011. In April 2012, Honˇ¦ble Supreme Court of India cancelled the bail of Vijay Kumar Sharma as he was not appearing in the matters of JVG in the company courts and directed him to surrender before the courts concerned but Vijay Kumar Sharma did not surrender and went underground. During his absconding period, the accused Vijay Kumar Sharma frequently changed his hideouts in Delhi, UP, Uttarakhand, Rajasthan and Maharashtra and avoided train and air journey and preferred travel by road. Most of the time, he used to stay in hotels and guest houses situated in small towns of these states. He also frequently changed his mobile phones and SIM cards and cars to hoodwink the investigating agencies. PROFILE: Vijay Kumar Sharma was born in 1962 in Haryana. His father was a govt. teacher by profession. He matriculated from DAV Sr. Sec. School, Daryaganj, Delhi and gave up his studies in 11th standard. He started his career as a building materials supplier to Swadeshi Polytex during 1979-1989. In September 1989, he launched his first company ˇ§JVGˇ¨ and started real estate business by developing a colony in the name of ˇ§JVG Enclaveˇ¨ on Noida-Dadri Road, which was declared unauthorized by the UP Govt. Later, he launched a new company in name of ˇ§JVG Financeˇ¨ and developed a colony by the name of ˇ§Chaudhary Charan Singh Awas Yojnaˇ¨ in Bagpat District of UP. In the year 1992, he opened his office in Patna and developed a colony in the name of ˇ§Jai Prakash Yojnaˇ¨. He earned a lot of money this way and purchased the Appu Ghar in Meerut whose CA was one Mr DK Kapoor. After this, he deputed DK Kapur as CA and Financial Consultant of his company and they started demanding fixed deposits from general public in their company by offering them very high interest rates and opened several branches of the company all over India. In this way the accused collected huge money from general public and he started JVG daily Hindi newspaper and Sandhya Times in Delhi and ˇĄJVG Sandhya Prahariˇ¦ in Patna. After this, he launched another company ˇ§JVG Departmentalˇ¨ and opened departmental stores in different areas of Chandigarh, Kurukshetra, Delhi, Patna, Varanasi and Ranchi etc. Over the next few years, the company brought over 3000 small firms under its control. Vijay Sharma also launched JVG Steels, JVG Departmental Stores, JVG Foods, JVG Petrochemicals and many other companies. In 1992, he acquired San Tosha Resorts and India Cero Oil, an oil extraction unit from the Dalmias in 1993. The major chunk of the JVG empire was created from fixed deposits received from general public. In the early 1990s, Sharma opened branches of his finance companies in various towns and villages. He followed this with aggressive advertising regarding officering high interest rates, which were as high as 30%. Investors flocked to buy the company's schemes and the deposit base soon crossed Rs1000 crores. The JVG group's turnover increased from Rs.102 crore in 1994-95 to Rs.700 crore in 1995-96. He keeps on changing his appearance (look and style) very frequently to avoid easy identity. PLANS: Sharma had grand and ambitious plans for expanding JVG to a Rs12000 crore empire by the year 2000. He announced that he would invest over Rs4000 crore in diverse areas such as power, cement, hotels, steel, textiles and aviation. JVG went ahead with its plans although it came in for a lot of flak in the media. Soon, JVG launched the ˇĄAvatar' brand of detergent and washing bars in an attempt to enter the FMCG segment. He wanted to set up mega townships in Gurgaon, Patna, Mumbai and Hyderabad, and to acquire the hotel and cement interests of the Delhi-based Jaiprakash Industries, the steel units of Rathi Alloys and the aircraft of ModiLuft.
