"On September 26, at 11.16 pm, a call was received at Ranhola police station regarding the kidnapping and robbery of a man. He said that three men hypnotized him and made him transfer ₹98,000 to different accounts," a senior police officer had said.
Based on his complaint, an FIR was registered. The team checked the CCTV footage and arrested the accused, identified as Vinay (24), Naveen (24), Rohit (24) and Akash (22).
Both Vinay and Naveen work for a food delivery application. Akash is a labourer and Rohit is unemployed, the police had said.
"We have recovered ₹27,000 of the cheated amount from them," Deputy Commissioner of Police Jimmy Chiram had said.
"During interrogation, the accused told the police that they used friendship applications to connect with people and cheat them. Vinay confessed that he cheated people to release his gold chain from a finance company. While Naveen had to pay the instalments of his motorcycle," DCP Chiram had said.
