Police Arrest Suspects in Separate Fake Government Job Rackets in Delhi and BhopalPreviousNext

Police in Delhi and Bhopal have arrested individuals involved in separate fake job rackets targeting government job seekers. In Delhi, three people, including a former Income Tax Department employee, allegedly cheated at least six victims of around Rs 10 lakh by conducting fake recruitment inside government premises. In Bhopal, a man was arrested for duping youths of several lakhs with forged appointment letters for municipal jobs. Investigations are ongoing in both cases to identify more victims and trace funds.
