It was in 2013 when SPS Oberoi first rose to popularity when he paid almost 6 crores to free 17 Punjab natives imprisoned in Dubai. Sukhjot Singh and 16 other men were convicted for the murder of Misri Khan (Pakistan). 

Then after two years, one stranger (Mr Oberoi) went to meet the 17 men in prison and decided to help them get free. Describing the incident, Oberoi stated, “I read about this incident in a newspaper. I met the men in prison. I realised that it was a group clash and a man had got killed. One of these men could have been a victim too. They were not hardened criminals. It was an incident that went wrong. I felt they should not spend the rest of their lives in prison. Since I am from a place [Punjab], where people are closely attached to their children, I thought of helping them. That’s how it all began.”
