Police sources said a patrolling team spotted two suspicious cars moving around Rajiv Gandhi Nagar at Kundrakudi and found cash of Rs.4,99,90,500 inside ten textile shop bags in the vehicles, sources said.
Investigations revealed that Rajkumar, the biz man, who runs a jewelry shop in Salem, was cheated by a gang of six men of doubling money.
