Bhubaneswar: The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Tuesday arrested the CMD and the General Manager of Nirmal Infra Ashish Chouhan and Abhisekh Chouhan respectively in connection with Rs 433 crore fraud.

As per reports, the duo had been absconding since months. The CBI sleuths, acting on a tip-off, managed to arrest them after they returned to Bhubaneswar from Madhya Pradesh yesterday.

Nirmal Infra is a Madhya Pradesh-based company. The Chouhan duo had opened a branch office of the firm in Odisha and duped people.

Later, they were produced before the Special CJM CBI court and sent to jail.

Meanwhile, the investigating agency is likely to take them on remand today for further investigation.
