BharatPe co-founder Ashneer Grover and his wife Madhuri Jain were stopped at Terminal 3 of the Indira Gandhi International Airport on late on Thursday night after the Economic Offences Wing (EOW) of the Delhi Police issued a look out circular (LOC) against the couple.
Sindhu Pillai, joint commissioner of police (EOW), said the couple was travelling to New York and were stopped before security check.
“They were asked to return to their Delhi residence and join the probe at the EoW office at Mandir Marg next week,” she said. The joint CP also said the LOC was only to stop them from travelling abroad.
Confirming the news, the former BharatPe MD took to X to talk about the incident that happened late on Thursday night.
“I found it strange as I have travelled 4 times internationally since FIR filed in May — never been a problem and I had not even been summoned once,” Grover said. He said a lookout notice was delivered to him only Friday morning.
