Con man in India escapes punishment because of friends in high places...

A white-collar offender picked up on charges of cheating to the tune of Rs 10 crore was let him off scot-free, allegedly due to political pressure.

A S Suresh, 38, has 10 cases of cheating people of a total of more than Rs 10 crore pending against him two cases are pending with the CBI and the rest with the central crime branch (CCB). Though he was appearing in court regularly for the CBI cases, he reportedly refused to surrender or appear for the cases registered by the CCB.

While they were questioning Suresh, a luxury car entered the CCB premises without even stopping to register at the police reception and parked in officers' parking lot. Two men got out of the car, met a senior police officer and convinced him to let Suresh off. Sources alleged that the pressure came from a woman Rajya Sabha MP who is close to Suresh. Durai, who was inside the city police commissioner's office, was allegedly threatened with dire consequences if he pursued the case. Full story...
