Earlier in April 2016, Imphal East district magistrate had declared Karnajit as an “absconder” in various criminal, forgery and cheating cases lodged in 2015 after he failed to appear in the court despite repeated summon for appearance after he availed bail.
He has been staying in an apartment in New Delhi since he left Manipur in 2016.
The arrest of Kanarjit was made on the basis of a complaint by a student from Nepal who had accused Karnajit of duping him into paying money to his organisation, the International Youth Committee.
