The Kharghar police on Thursday arrested three more people for allegedly cheating a Panvel resident of ₹1 crore after demonetisation last year.

The three have been identified as Mahesh alias Manoj Kamlakar Suravkar (52) and Sunil Tukaram Korde (46), both real estate agents from Dombivali, and Badlapur resident Shashank Gopal Tawade (57). The husband and son of Anita Mhasane, the main accused in the ₹2.09 crore dacoity in Vashi, were arrested on Sunday.

The police said the three men were known to Ms. Mhasane and were promised a 5% commission to exchange scrapped notes. They will be produced in court on Friday, inspector Devidas Sonawane said.
