Police bust gang involved in cheating people, seize fake notes of Rs 1 crore in Telangana
Telangana’s Rachakonda police seized fake Indian currency notes with a face value of over Rs 1 crore and genuine currency worth Rs 1.3 lakh after busting a gang involved in cheating people on the pretext of exchanging black money. Keesara police Saturday arrested five persons, including a woman, who lured the complainant into a deal and snatched Rs 5 lakh from him by stage-managing a filmy police raid at Shamirpet.
The arrested have been identified as Mohd Azeez alias Azam (35), Mohd Anwar Pasha (38), Taduka Subhash Chandra Bose (41), Marri Nagaraju (28) and Jangam Bhagya Laxmi (40). Police also seized a car and other material from the Karimnagar-based gang. Two other accused are at large.
The mastermind Azeez, a 35-year-old realtor from Karimnagar, and his aides first arranged fake notes of Rs 1 crore. His close associate Bose, who was a film production manager, contacted an art director and printed the currency claiming that the dummy notes were to be used in the shooting of a government advertisement. Another accused Pasha, who used to play small roles in films, arranged a police uniform.
