Following FD agent, wife detained in Nuh postal fraud

In connection with a fraud involving millions of rupees at the Nuh post office, the police have also detained Pawan Kalra, a post office agent, and his wife Anshu Kalra. Anshu is being held on remand for three days by the police.

The husband and wife were both complicit in the hoax, according to the police. At the Nuh post office, the suspect Pawan was an agent for a fixed deposit (FD) program and his wife Anshu was an agent for a recurring deposit (RD) plan. The pair stole millions of rupees worth of people’s wealth via deception.

Pawan and his family fled with their money when individuals discovered the scam and went to the post office; the victims then reported the incident to the police. At the police station in Nuh City, a FIR was filed.

In addition to street vendors, Pawan helped rickshaw pullers, tea vendors, impoverished laborers, merchants, and employed individuals create their FD, RD, and other savings accounts. After a while, Pawan reportedly stopped handing out money to the public and stole millions of rupees by taking withdrawals from bank accounts using fictitious signatures.

Pawan was taken into custody by Nuh police’s Economic Offense Wing (EOW) on April 10. He was placed on police remand for four days before being placed on detention for three days. His spouse Anshu was also taken into custody on Monday in Palwal due to her participation in the crime.

“We produced Anshu before a Nuh court and placed her under police detention for three days after her arrest. The investigating officer, Sub-Inspector Jugal Kishor, said that further investigation is now continuing.
