On Tuesday morning, a team left for Punjab, while another will be sent to Kolkata tomorrow, sources said. Officials said that the scam has definite inter-state links and a team would also be going to Mumbai by tomorrow to check if any National Securities Depository Ltd (NSDL) official has connived with Deepak Kumar in sending two PAN cards to the same address within a very short span of time.

A team is also being sent to Aligarh to get details of the fake documents recovered from ex-DDA employee M L Gautam. Delhi Police are already looking for a few property dealers and other accused in Gurgaon, Jhunjhunu (Rajasthan) and Bulandshahr (UP).

Sources in the Economic Offences Wing (EOW) said that a property dealer from Punjab is under the scanner for helping in providing funds to M L Gautam, the mastermind. The EOW was already looking for a property dealer from Gurgaon, as reported by Sunday Newsline, but after carrying out raids in Gurgaon, the police could not trace him.

In investigations related to 1200 forms filled by M L Gautam from Bulandshahr (UP), S B K Singh (Additional Commissioner of Police) EOW on Tuesday said that they have not recovered any of the applications filled by him except the sale deeds of 38 successful allotted flats.

“Gautam and accomplices might have destroyed or hidden 1200 applications and other documents. We have only found around 100 applications out of the 1200 forms,” a senior police officer said.
