A man posing as an official of National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) duped a retired General Manager of a reputed company of ₹30 lakh after promising to get him compensation of ₹98 lakh for a piece of land he lost in a road-widening project. Based on a complaint by A.V. Vishwanath, the Suryanagar police on Friday booked a case of criminal breach of trust and cheating against Harish Reddy and Mubarak. Vishwanath, in his complaint, said that after taking VRS, he purchased three acres of land and settled down near Kaggalipura Gate in Anekal. The NHAI had taken over 8,000 square feet of his land for a road-widening project.More Related News
