Punjab AAP Leader Files Fraud Case Against Woman Posing as PCS Officer in Marriage
An Aam Aadmi Party leader in Punjab, Amarinder Singh Mandofal, has accused Manwinder Kaur of posing as a Punjab Civil Services officer and marrying him under false pretenses in February 2026. The woman allegedly concealed her previous marriage, divorce, and an 18-year-old son, and fled with gold, silver jewellery, and valuables shortly after the wedding. Police have registered a cheating and forgery case against Kaur and five family members from Tarn Taran district. The wedding was attended by senior AAP leaders, including Punjab Assembly Speaker Kultar Singh Sandhwan and Cabinet Minister Tarunpreet Singh Saundh.
