Two Nigerian nationals have been arrested in India by officials by posing as engineers and doctors and ripping 60 women off their millions of rupees on matrimonial websites. The two suspects identified as Martin Valenton and Tony Ifeanyi were apprehended by Gurugram police in Delhi’s Duran vihar and Mohan Garden respectively.
The police revealed that, the bad act of these two Nigerian nationals came to light when a woman came to lodge a complain that she had been duped of about r70,000 on February 2. The assistant commander of the police force identified as Preet pal sangwan revealed that, after the woman’s complaint, they forced a team and began investigating into the matter.
"A man approached the victim through a matrimonial website and introduced himself as Kuma Jordan - a pilot based in Bangalore in July last year. After chatting for a few days, he told
the victim that he is from France after which she stopped talking”. He revealed.
The woman confirmed that, she had a friend request from a man who claimed to be from Bangalore and she shared her phone number with him and they began talking? However upon finding out he was not from India, she stopped talking to him. She further revealed that,
“on January 1, she mistakenly sent a new year message to him which spiced up their conversation again which he said he was going come to India for a vacation and even sent me his flight ticket”. The woman revealed.
Moving forward, she added that on the 31st of January, she received a call from Mumbai airport and officials wanted to verify her credentials. That’s was the lie they used in duping people. They woman narrating how it happened revealed the following;
"They asked me to pay €55,500 for the suspect's release because he was carrying a lot of Euros. I paid the amount in a bank account number given
to me. After a few minutes, Jordan called me and asked me to transfer Ł15,000 more for flight tickets from Mumbai to Delhi and I again transferred the money. After 30 minutes, I again
received a call from the 'airport' and a woman told me to pay 795,000 as custom duty, but I refused" she said in her complaint, requesting anonymity.
The two men have been captured and awaiting trial.
