Economic Offences Wing (EOW) of Delhi Police has arrested a person for selling a property of Church illegally located at Rajpur road in the national capital, said a press release by the department on Saturday.

Police informed that the property costs over Rs 50 crores and is spread over 1.27 acres of land.

According to an official statement of Delhi Police, the accused has been identified as Shoral Bobby Dass and his co-accused John Augustine made the attorney holder of all movable and immovable properties of the Church of India (ICT) and CIPBC in the province of India.

Sulochana Prakash, President of Women's Christian Temperance of India who filed a complaint against the accused alleged that Indian Church Trustees hatched a criminal conspiracy and prepared false documents with regard to the property in dispute claiming themselves to be the owner of the property, the statement said.

"However, Prakash informed that the institution has never sold any property to these trustees," it added.
