Woman loan app organiser has links with Pakistani national, suspect Vijayawada police

A loan app organiser, Mohammad Juhi Salim Shaik (28) hailing from the II Town area in Vijayawada, who was arrested by the Surat police recently in connection with the suicide of a woman assistant professor of a university in Gujarat, allegedly sent the money to a Pakistani national, the police have said.

The assistant professor jumped before a running train in Surat on March 16, 2023, allegedly unable to bear the harassment by the loan app organisers.

“During the course of the investigation, the police found that Juhi’s mail ID, social media and bank accounts were connected to one Mian Zulfikar, who reportedly lives in Pakistan. Juhi had allegedly transferred money to Zulfikar in cryptocurrency,” the police said.
