Fraudster Najeeb Khan’s Incredible 240 Car Collection Fetches N17bn At Auction

Over 240 car collection and 50 motorcycles owned by accused fraudster Najeeb Khan has been auctioned off for $44.4m (N17.1billion)

The auctioned cars included Ferrari 225 S Berlinetta; Aston Martin DB5; a 1963 Jaguar E-Type; 1969 Lamborghini Miura P400 S; and a 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Gullwing.

Last year, millionaire CEO of Interlogic Outsourcing Inc, Najeeb Khan, was accused of a multimillion-dollar fraud and eventually declared bankruptcy.

With former clients claiming Najeeb Khan owes them millions of dollars, his car collection was sold off for $44.4 by RM Sotheby’s during a bankruptcy auction last month. Proceeds will go toward paying debts he owes to creditors.

With 2,500 bidders from 53 countries, Najeeb Khan’s former car collection called ‘The Elkhart Collection‘, was expected to fetch between $35 million and $40 million.
