Mumbai: On Tuesday, Mumbai Police's Economic Offences Wing (EOW) arrested Ramesh Gowani, the owner of Kamala Mills, for a ₹67.50 crore scam. The complainant, Surjit Singh Arora (62), owned a land in Khardand. In 2013, Gowani proposed a development plan for the site and offered Arora ₹67.50 crore in return.
