A 27-year-old man was arrested with his three family members and two friends for allegedly cheating doctors and eminent personalities on the pretext of felicitating them at "fake" events in 5 star hotels, police said.
According to police, Ramendra Kumar Raj, who is the kingpin and also holds an M.Tech degree, wanted to earn quick money and for that, he involved his wife, father, and brother-in-law in his gang to dupe people.
The accused used to take Rs 15,000 to 50,000 from their targets through online banking as fees for facilitation, media expenses and other expenses for organising the event
