Cuttack: Police have detected black magic practitioner Kaifi Khan’s 80 accounts in different banks in Odisha’s Cuttack city.
According to Mangalabag Police, which had arrested Kaifi earlier, had frozen Kaifi’s 11 bank accounts including fixed deposits in Sahara, LIC policies, Saving account in SBI, Bank of Baroda, Allahabad Bank and Central Bank of India. Besides, the police have found during investigation a plot near Salepur Paga in the name of the tantrik.
He was travelling frequently to various places outside the state. Kaifi Khan was recently arrested based on the complaint filed by a woman who accused him of duping her to the tune of Rs 62 lakh on the pretext of warding off negative energy and digging out hidden treasure from her house.
The police sources said more properties in the name of Kaifi are likely to surface as more victims have filed complaints against him. So far, six cases of cheating and fraud have been registered against him.
Earlier, Mangalabag police arrested one of Kaifi’s associates identified as Israel. He allegedly worked as a middleman for Kaifi in the cheating cases amounting to a staggering Rs 1.11 crore.
Police had arrested Kaifi from Kesharpur on the basis of a complaint lodged by a Ranihat-based woman, accusing him of duping her of Rs 62 lakh. They have taken him on a four-day remand for further questioning in the cases. A special police team has been formed to interrogate him.
