Mumbai Crime: Cop held for cheating woman out of Rs 1 crore in old currency

The Kharghar police recently arrested a constable attached to Khandeshwar police station for taking Rs 1 crore in old currency from a woman on the pretext of exchanging them with new notes.



The constable had told the woman he could easily exchange the notes at the bank as he was a cop. The woman trusted Mahasane and handed him Rs 1 crore to exchange. For the next one year, the woman kept chasing the constable to return her money but the constable kept ignoring her.

The woman, fed of Mahasane's behaviour, approached the Kharghar police and filed a complaint last week. The cops immediately arrested Mahasane. His wife, too, is behind bars for her involvement in a dacoity of R2 crore at a trader's residence at APMC.
