Following intel reports, the police raided offices of ‘Expresco Galf Gas’ at Central Plaza in Fancy Bazar and at Upasana Complex in Ulubari, where the company allegedly sold fake franchises for ‘Galf Gas,’ promising LPG connections and defrauding multiple individuals.

During the raids, officials seized incriminating documents, mobile phones, computers, and various office accessories used in the scam.

An investigation is ongoing to identify additional individuals involved and to determine the full extent of the fraud. The operation was carried out by the Panbazar Police Station.
