New Delhi, Oct 15 (UNI) Police today claimed to have unearthed a land and building scam of more than Rs 50 crore with the arrest of the MD of a construction company.

The company gave advertisements in 2005-06 for development of housing colonies in Manesar, Faridabad and Greater Noida.

It promised to develop township over 750 acres where it had a very small piece of land in its name. Even the requisite permission from the state governments concerned was not sought.

Till now 395 investors, who have invested about Rs 18 crore have filed complaints with police.
