The District Crime Branch police on Tuesday arrested a 31-year-old man and have launched a search for an worker of NLC India Ltd (NLCIL) on prices of accumulating ₹8.5 lakh and duping two youths, promising them jobs.
According to police, the accused Keerthi Prasanna of Kollupatti in Salem district ran a placement agency Imperial Placement Services in Chennai. He collected ₹8.5 lakh from two youths, R. Karthikesan and J. Sudhan of Cuddalore promising them employment in multi-national corporations. The victims received to know the accused by their neighbour Mariappan, father-in-law of the accused and an worker of NLCIL.
The duo allegedly took money from the victims in a number of instalments. The victims realised that they’d been cheated when the accused repeatedly did not sustain their guarantees. The victims alleged that they have been threatened by the accused, and lodged a criticism with the Superintendent of Police S. Sakthi Ganesan. On the instructions of the SP, the DCB police registered a case and nabbed Keerthi Prasanna from Salem.
A search has been launched to nab Mariappan. A case has been registered in opposition to the duo below Sections 406, 420 and 506 (ii) of the Indian Penal Code.
