A resident of Morkhi village of Jind’s Pillukheda block was duped of Rs 10 lakh 10 thousand in the name of sending him to Canada and getting him a work permit and PR. Police have registered a case against 7 people of a Mohali company.
In a complaint to the police, Satyawan, a resident of Morkhi village of Pillukheda area, said that his son Saavan wanted to go abroad, and he used to watch videos related to going abroad on YouTube. He had commented on a video, after which he received a call from a woman.
She said that she is Manisha, speaking from Rudraksh Group in Mohali Phase-1. They have been sending people abroad for 32 years. They also get work permits there. If he wants to go abroad, he can come and meet them in the office.
Satyawan said that his son Saavan went to Mohali and talked. When he was introduced to the company owner, Rakesh alias Ricky, he said that he would get Canada’s work permit and visa in one to two weeks. Later, he was introduced to Gurpreet and Priyanka. They asked for Rs 8.60 lakh in the name of the security amount and demanded Rs 13 lakh 60 thousand along with PR. On this, he deposited Rs 30 thousand as registration fee in the account of Rudraksh Company on 25 January 2024.
After four to five days, Manisha called and asked him to deposit Rs 8 lakh 30 thousand in the company’s account through RTGS. He got the RTGS done on 5 February 2024. The very next day, he was asked to deposit another Rs 5 lakh and also took the responsibility of PR in Canada. On 8 February, he deposited another Rs 5 lakh. After that, for six months, sometimes Gurpreet and sometimes Vijay Tiwari kept calling him and kept saying that his work is going on and is in progress. S
When he asked for his money back after waiting for a long time, Rakesh’s wife, Prabha Devi, said that his payment would be made in a month. After this, the accused kept giving him false assurances. Finally, when he said that he would complain to the police, the accused put 2.50 lakh rupees in his account and gave one lakh rupees in cash. He asked for some time for the remaining payment.
Till now, his remaining payment has not been given. The accused has cheated him by committing fraud with the intention of cheating. On Satyawan’s complaint, Pillukheda police station has registered a case of cheating and threatening against Rakesh, his wife Prabha, Gurpreet, Vijay, Priyanka, Mamta, and Renu.
