4 arrested for duping people

Four persons, who allegedly duped people after promising to get them confirmed railway tickets, have been arrested, police said today.
The accused have been identified as Kundan Kumar Sahni (20), Ashok Kumar Sahni alias Manoj Sharma (22), Sanjay Kumar Sahni (19) and Harender Kumar Sahni (19), all natives of Bihar.
According to police, they were arrested following a complaint by Gyanender Kumar who works in Gurgaon and met two of the accused while travelling in metro rail with his younger brother on August 3. Kumar was on his way to his native Bihar.
"One of the accused introduced himself as Sharma who too was going to Bihar. He further said that one of his relative works in railways and he will arrange for Kumar railway passes," a police officer said.

Thereafter, Sharma and his associate took the complainant and his brother to Mohammadpur, where the relative of Sharma told the complainant and his brother that their belongings will have to be scanned.
"They took the complainant's ATM cards along with PIN, two mobiles and their valuable academic and other documents. After some time, the victim got to know that the accused had fraudulently withdrawn Rs 4,000 and Rs 3,000 from their accounts using his ATM cards. Realising that they have been cheated, they lodged a complaint," the officer said.

During the interrogation it was revealed that one Munna is the leader of the gang.

"The accused in separate groups targeted people belonging to their native state Bihar. They would be-friend them and influence them by saying that one of their relatives works in Delhi Railways and that they can facilitate their journey and get their tickets confirmed," the officer said.
Police said that the accused have been involved in more than 100 such cases in Delhi and NCR. Further investigation is on to arrest absconding kingpin Munna.
