Conwoman arrested in Jaipur

A 28-year-old woman who had conned several people by posing as an IAS officer and befriended several socialites here has been arrested, police said today.
The woman has been identified as Khushboo Shamra alias Smriti Sharma alias Lady Cocoa and she was arrested on charges of trespassing a house and car theft on Wednesday, said SHO Sodala Sunil Prasad, Adarsh Nagar police station.
"An FIR was lodged against the woman for trespassing a house few days back and she was chased by a police team who held her on Wednesday with a car. Yesterday, Adarsh Nagar police station arrested her in another case of car theft," SHO Sodala Sunil Prasad said.

In February, Sharma had taken a lift from a man on Ajmer road and had taken him to Rajapark area where she asked him to get some pills from a medical shop. When the men went to the shop, she drove away the vehicle, SHO Adarsh Nagar Brijesh Meena said.
The car was recovered from the possession of the woman who was staying alone in a flat.
Sharma used to pose as an IAS officer and had become friends with many local socialites. On social networking sites also, she described herself an officer, another police officer said.
After her arrest several people had contacted the police and told them how they too were cheated by her. However, they were reluctant to lodge a formal complaint fearing social embarrassment.

A few complaints against her have also been registered with other police stations also.
