42 year old Daljit Singh Multani is accused of hiring an undercover police officer to kill his former business partner, Rama Kant Dawar.
Dawar is a local real estate agent and is part of the city planning commission.
Fresno police say a 2 month under cover investigation ultimately lead to Singhs arrest.
Singh owns 2 businesses in Fresno - 'Multani Tow' and 'Limos by Multani.'
Police say Singh and Dawar were business partners at one point but had a falling out.
There was a law suit between the two and Dawar won.
Police say that may have been the motive for this crime.
Dawar says he does not understand why Singh would do such a thing and is still scared.
Police say Singh told a confidential informant that he wanted Dawar killed.
Money was paid and a stolen weapon was given to carry out the murder plot.
The plan was to have Dawar killed this past weekend.
Singh is currently behind bars on a $1,000,000 bail.
