In Madhya Pradesh's Mandla, six individuals have been arrested and assets worth Rs 66.50 lakh seized as part of an investigation into a fraudulent investment scheme, officials disclosed on Sunday.

One of the suspects had a pending case in Nagpur, Maharashtra, but is currently at large on bail.
The police recovered cash, vehicles, and personal items amounting to approximately Rs 66.50 lakh from the suspects.
