Moga, October 24
The police has registered a criminal case of fraud against a woman and her son for allegedly duping a youth of Rs 6.5 lakh on the pretext of sending him to Greece for a job.

In his complaint, Baljinder Singh of Badhni Kalan village of the district alleged that the woman, Amarjeet Kaur, and her son, Lakhwinder Singh, residents of Malerkotla town, took the amount from him last year.
However, even after a year of taking the money, they could neither fulfill the promise of sending him abroad nor did they return back the money, he alleged.
After verifying the facts, the police conducted an inquiry into the allegations and prima facie found the woman and her son took the money from the complainant, after which a criminal case under Sections 420 and 406 of the Indian Penal Code was registered against them. However, they were yet to be arrested by the police.
