Less than a month after the Madhya Pradesh police gave a clean chit to Goregaon couple Ashesh and Shivangi Mehta, the Mumbai Police’s Economic Offences Wing on Friday arrested them in Gujarat. They were brought to Mumbai and produced in court on Saturday, where they were remanded in police custody till January 4. 

The proprietors of Bliss Consultants, a financial consultancy firm, were on the run since June.  Confirming their arrest, Joint Commissioner of Police (EOW) Nishith Mishra said, “A total of 11 accounts with a collective balance of Rs 148 crore have been frozen so far, and five properties, worth Rs 16 crore have been seized, apart from shares worth Rs 6 crore.”
