Business Standard New Delhi
It was always a given that most of the 24 borrowers of National Spot Exchange Ltd had strong political connections and local support. What came as surprise to the investors and brokers who are trying to recover their hard-earned money was that one of them actually has criminal antecedents. A borrower from a northern state is said to have been involved in a bank robbery case a couple of decades ago.

Since then he has never looked back.
