New Delhi, Aug. 24 -- The Delhi Police on Saturday said they arrested a couple from Bengaluru for impersonating film and television producers and directors, and cheating acting aspirants by promising them opportunities in serials and movies on television and OTT platforms. DCP (Southwest) Amit Goel said the accused were identified as Tarun Shekhar Sharma, 32, an MBA degree holder from Lucknow, and Asha Singh, alias Bhawna, 29, a Class 12 dropout from Delhi. The two were wanted in four similar cases registered in Uttar Pradesh, Delhi, and Jammu and Kashmir over the past three years, and at least 20 complaints linked to them are lodged on the national cybercrime reporting portal (NCRP). Police recovered seven mobile phones, 10 SIM cards, 15 bank cheque books and passbooks, eight ATM cards and a pair of gold earrings from their possession. The arrests followed a case registered at the southwest district's cyber police station in early May on the complaint of a woman from Raghu Nagar in Dabri, whose 17-year-old daughter was duped of Rs.24 lakh. "She was promised a role in a TV serial and tricked into paying the amount between April 28 and May 1, after which her number was blocked," said Goel.HTC...
