A 23-year-old former employee of a Delhi-based pharmaceutical company has been arrested for allegedly using confidential company information to forge documents and secure government tenders for the Army Hospital Research and Referral in Dhaula Kuan, Delhi. The accused, along with an associate who is currently absconding, reportedly ran a parallel firm named M/S Mammoth Life Sciences LLP after being terminated for financial misconduct. The company filed a complaint stating that the accused had access to sensitive data, which he misused post-termination in 2023. The fraudulent activities led to the cancellation of a tender and the company's subsequent blacklisting. Additionally, the duo allegedly threatened company officials for ₹1 crore (approximately $120,000 USD) to prevent the exposure of confidential information, claiming connections to gangster Lawrence Bishnoi to instill fear. The police have initiated a probe to locate the absconding associate.
