The Economic Offences Wing of the Central Crime Branch (CCB) on Monday arrested a private financier, who allegedly harassed the public by charging exorbitant interest rates.

Unable to bear the harassment, one of the victims filed a complaint with the HSR Layout police and the case was taken over by the CCB.

A team of officials on Monday raided the house of Sudarshan N. in HSR Layout and seized ₹33 lakh in cash and other documents, including those related to movable and immovable properties, blank cheques, and promissory notes of victims.
