- APS Wealth Ventures allegedly defrauded investors between 2018 and 2023 by promising 5 per cent monthly returns on investments. The couple misappropriated funds through multiple schemes after initially providing returns to gain trust.
- Following the investigation, a Red Notice was issued through Interpol against the couple after they fled India. The CBI, serving as the nodal agency for INTERPOL-related matters, coordinated with international authorities to secure their return.
- Avinash Rathod was deported on July 23, with Vishakha following on Monday. Both are now in Maharashtra Police custody for further investigation, following inter-agency cooperation between the CBI, MEA, and MHA.
