The Central Crime Branch (CCB) has arrested two men, N. Kamalakannan (55) and N. Delhi Kumar (60), for allegedly cheating 14 job aspirants out of Rs62.8 lakh by promising them jobs in various government departments.
According to the police, Kamalakannan, a resident of Korattur, and his accomplice G. Mahesh (34), from Kolathur, lured the victims by offering government positions in exchange for commission payments. The victims, including Kamalakannan, paid a total of Rs62.8 lakh to the accused, expecting genuine appointment orders for government jobs.
However, they were duped with fake appointment letters and the promised jobs never materialized. Upon realizing they had been cheated, the victims filed a complaint with the police, leading to the arrest of the accused.
The CCB has booked the duo under cheating and criminal conspiracy charges, and investigations are ongoing to determine if there are more victims involved.
