Rajkumar Rajbhar faked death using AI to dodge murder trial
A man in Uttar Pradesh tried to dodge a murder trial by faking his own death, with a little help from artificial intelligence.
Rajkumar Rajbhar reportedly created an artificial intelligence-generated image of his own cremation and managed to get a fake death certificate, hoping this would let him evade legal proceedings and avoid repaying money collected from people on the pretext of investing it in the stock market.
