As Puri is behind bars now, police fear developers might try to resell the property.

Thus, builders of projects where Puri had invested have been asked not to sell the houses as the police plans to make it case property.

“During the course of interrogation when Puri was in police custody, he told investigators about his investments. He had booked several flats and was paying installments.

As many projects are yet to come up and Puri has stopped paying the dues, the developers might think of selling the property. We have identified the areas and issued a letter to the builders,” said a senior police officer.

“We have started attaching the properties but do not have a concrete list. He had invested in nearly a dozen properties,” he added.
