SRINAGAR Crime Branch Kashmir has arrested two people for cheating a number of job aspirants.
Crime Branch Kashmir received a complaint intimating that on 20-01-2019 CRPF Madadgar received a call from one Liyaqat Chowdhary (the complainant) from Village Mangnar District Poonch complaining that he along with the 12 other boys have been duped to the tune of Rs 43 Lakh over the promise of providing them jobs in CRPF, according to a statement.
The official communication reads that the aggrieved were made to go through an explicit recruitment procedure wherein they were made to undergo Medical as well as physical examination at 182 Bn. CRPF Camp Pulwama. Besides a fake website www.crpfindia.gov.in was also created and fake selection list was uploaded on it showing the names of the complainant and others in it. The appointment letters were also provided to them, which bore fake stamps of 3rd Battalion of CRPF to make the whole process look like a genuine recruitment. However the process turned out to be a fake.
