Delhi cop's son duped of ₹2.3 lakh in college admission
A Delhi Police head constable lost ₹2.3 lakh in July 2025 after falling for a scam promising her son a management quota seat at IP University.
She was contacted by SMS, met at an office in Nehru Place, and handed over the cash for a supposed spot at Surajmal College—only to find out later that no admission existed and the office had disappeared.
