A PMLA court in Shimla has declared Ashoni Kanwar and her son Mandeep Rana as fugitive economic offenders under the Fugitive Economic Offenders Act, 2018, in the Manav Bharti University fake degree scam. The ED’s probe showed fake degrees were sold, generating about ₹387 crore, with assets worth roughly ₹200 crore attached so far. Kanwar and Rana allegedly fled to Australia and failed to appear in court.
