RCMP say they are seeking a warrant for the arrest of Deepak Kumar, who they say is reported to be outside of Canada.

Police say Kumar’s businesses were located in Yellowknife and the allegations were first reported to them in 2015.

Police say the value of the alleged fraud is reported to be more than $1 million.
