Jaipur. A major fraud case involving gold jewelry worth approximately 1.80 crore rupees has been resolved by the Madanganj police in Kishangarh. Three suspects were taken into custody following an intensive investigation that spanned multiple cities across Rajasthan and beyond. The authorities successfully recovered the entire haul of 1,510 grams of gold ornaments along with 1.32 lakh rupees in cash.
The incident began when a jeweler from Churu, Manphool Soni, reported that he had been lured to Kishangarh under the pretext of a large order. The complainant had sent two staff members with the gold on November 5, 2026, after receiving persistent calls from a man identifying himself as Rahul Soni. Upon arrival, the staff were taken to a residence where they presented the jewelry. The suspect then orchestrated a series of movements between locations before ultimately fleeing on a scooter, leaving the employees stranded.
Following the registration of the case on November 10, the police launched a massive technical investigation. A dedicated team analyzed footage from over 500 CCTV cameras installed across the city to track the suspects' movements. The investigation revealed that the accused were highly mobile, frequently changing their locations to evade capture. Police teams conducted raids in various cities, including Beawar, Rajsamand, Ajmer, Bikaner, Ganganagar, Haridwar, and Jaipur.
The persistent efforts of the police led to the arrest of 39-year-old Rahul Kumar Soni, 37-year-old Avinash Kumar Singh, and 34-year-old Prem Navlani. The operation was carried out under the guidance of senior police officials, including the Ajmer Superintendent of Police, as part of a broader campaign against property-related crimes. The suspects are currently being interrogated to determine if they have been involved in similar fraudulent activities in other regions.
This successful recovery highlights the effectiveness of modern surveillance techniques in solving complex criminal cases. The local business community has expressed relief at the swift action taken by the law enforcement agencies in ensuring that the stolen assets were returned to the rightful owner.
