A bizarre fraud case has been reported from Dantaramgarh in Rajasthan where a woman married a young man after developing a relationship with him and later fled from his house with ₹11 lakh in cash and gold and silver jewellery.
According to the husband's complaint, the woman developed a relationship with him before their marriage. However, after the marriage, she began demanding a gold chain from him.
And then the situation got weird when she said she wanted money for the purchase to be delivered in cash rather than to a buyer by an online payment.
Husband Brings ₹11 Lakh Cash Home
According to the complaint, the husband agreed to his wife's demand and arranged ₹11 lakh in cash.
He brought the money home and kept it inside the house.
The woman remained at the house that night, the husband said. But she collected not only the cash but also jewellery from members of his family.
The jewellery included gold and silver ornaments belonging to the man’s mother and sister.
The incident was allegedly in the early hours of the morning.
Allegedly escaped around 4 AM
According to the complaint, the woman left the house at around 4 a.m. carrying the ₹11 lakh cash and jewellery.
The family said they found out she was missing after she left along with the valuables.
The family was shocked by the incident because the woman had allegedly been living with the complainant as his wife.
The husband went to the police and filed a complaint against the woman.
Police Launch Investigation
Police conducted an investigation of the crime after the complaint was filed.
The police then examined the circumstances in which the woman might have disappeared and whether cash and jewellery were stolen.
This complaint was followed up on by police, and the accused woman was arrested.
She was taken into custody and sent to jail, the information said.
The police investigation will establish the exact sequence of events, including how the relationship developed, the circumstances of marriage and the alleged disappearance of the cash and jewellery.
Cash And Jewellery At Centre of Case
The alleged recovery of ₹11 lakh and family jewellery is the subject of the complaint.
The husband maintains that the woman deliberately asked him to arrange the money in cash. He brought the money home, after which the woman left with the cash and valuables.
The case has drawn attention because of the unusual circumstances surrounding the alleged deception.
However, the allegations will continue to be in the police case, and the accused will have to give her defence through the legal process.
Investigation to establish full Details
Police are still investigating the case in order to determine the full facts of the case, the police said.
Investigators will be able to analyze evidence, family members’ statements and other information to determine what really happened before and after the alleged disappearance.
The case shows us that at least in financial transactions and relationships where large amounts of cash or valuables are involved, there is too much risk to take at the price of a lot of money.
Authorities have not disclosed further details about the alleged motive or whether the stolen cash and jewellery have been recovered from the victims’ cash or jewellery.
For now, the woman has been arrested after the complaint, and the alleged ₹11 lakh cash and jewellery theft is under investigation.
The case from Dantaramgarh drew attention because of the unusual allegation that the newly married woman allegedly left her husband's home in the early hours with a large amount of cash and family jewellery.
