A man in Outer Delhi concocted a tale about his mobile phone being snatched to dodge his wife's wrath, as revealed by police investigations. When Ashok Kaushik reported the incident, saying a biker had taken his phone, he was allegedly under the influence of alcohol, police noted.
Despite filing an FIR, CCTV footage showed no evidence of a theft. Interviews led investigators to Sabar Singh, who confirmed that Kaushik, inebriated, sought to borrow a phone. When footage confronted him, Kaushik confessed to inventing the story after losing his phone.
His confession before a magistrate confirmed no robbery took place, highlighting the lengths to which individuals may go to avoid personal accountability.
