A middle-aged man from north Delhi found himself in police custody after concocting a robbery story to defraud his employer of Rs 10 lakh, intended for his daughter's wedding expenses.

Gurdev Singh, 54, claimed he was accosted by motorcycle-borne individuals who allegedly attacked him and made away with cash and a gold chain. However, police investigations revealed inconsistencies, including a lack of evidence at the purported crime scene.

Concrete evidence from CCTV footage contradicted Singh's account. Under sustained questioning, Singh admitted to the deceit, motivated by financial pressure, and police successfully seized the full amount from his home.
