Udit Khullar, accused in a ₹4.55 crore bank fraud case, was deported to India from the United Arab Emirates on August 1, 2025. The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) facilitated the return through coordinated action with INTERPOL and UAE authorities.
Khullar was received at Indira Gandhi International Airport, Delhi, after a successful deportation mission supported by the CBI’s International Police Cooperation Unit (IPCU) and the National Central Bureau (NCB) in Abu Dhabi. His location in the UAE had been traced through international intelligence-sharing platforms.
Forged Property Documents Used to Secure Crores in Bank Loans
Khullar had been evading Indian authorities after allegedly orchestrating a fraudulent loan scheme involving forged property documents. The case, registered by the Special Cell of Delhi Police at Adazan Police Station, accuses him of criminal conspiracy, cheating, and forgery.
Investigations revealed that Khullar and his associates acquired loans worth ₹4.55 crore from both nationalised and private banks. They reportedly presented fake ownership papers of properties as collateral. Many of the properties listed were either non-existent or not legally owned by any of the accused individuals.
The case attracted attention after discrepancies in loan applications surfaced during bank audits, prompting the police to file a case and begin tracking the suspects. Khullar’s departure from the country complicated the probe, leading to the involvement of the CBI and its international coordination unit.

INTERPOL Coordination via BHARATPOL Brings Results
Following concrete inputs about Khullar’s whereabouts in the UAE, the CBI activated its international collaboration mechanism through BHARATPOL, its INTERPOL-linked platform. After locating the accused, the CBI issued a formal request to UAE authorities seeking deportation.
UAE officials approved the request, and Khullar was handed over to Indian authorities and brought back under escort. Officials said his return would expedite the prosecution process and potentially uncover further links to accomplices and financial institutions involved.
The CBI, functioning as India’s National Central Bureau under INTERPOL, has managed to bring back over 100 fugitives in recent years. The agency said it continues to prioritise cross-border economic crime and fraud investigations.
