A young man from Karmasad village in Anand district was kidnapped over a gold parcel worth ₹93 lakhs. The incident involved thirteen named individuals and ten others who conspired against him. The victim was taken to two different farmhouses where he was beaten and threatened with death. This complaint has been filed at the Petlad Rural Police Station.
The case has been taken up by the Anand Local Crime Branch (LCB) for further investigation. This is not the first of its kind; a similar complaint regarding a parcel scam was made about a year and a half ago.
Mihir Ramjibhai Rabari, a 27-year-old man, lives near Khodiyar Temple on Karmasad-Jol Road with his family. They depend on livestock for their livelihood. According to reports, Mihir was approached by Nirmal Kanbhai Rabari and Jayesh Maftabhai Rabari from Ashi village in Petlad. They offered him a chance to collect a parcel from America with a promise of commission.
This scam appears to be part of a larger trend where unsuspecting individuals are lured with false promises of wealth from overseas. The promise of receiving a parcel containing valuable gold can be tempting, especially for those looking for quick financial gains. However, it often leads to dangerous situations, as seen in Mihir’s case.
The police are now investigating the individuals involved. They are also looking into past similar incidents to understand how widespread this scam may be. Such scams highlight the need for increased awareness and caution among the public regarding offers that seem too good to be true.
People are advised to be vigilant and verify the authenticity of such offers before getting involved. The authorities are also urging anyone who has been a victim of similar scams to come forward and report the incidents.
As the investigation continues, the police hope to apprehend those responsible for Mihir’s abduction and prevent future occurrences of such crimes. It is important for communities to work together and report suspicious activities to the authorities to help keep everyone safe.
In a world where scams are becoming increasingly common, it is crucial to stay informed and cautious. The allure of easy money can lead to dangerous situations. Mihir’s experience serves as a warning to others about the potential risks associated with such offers.
The police are expected to release more information as the investigation unfolds. They encourage anyone with information about the case to reach out to them. Community cooperation can play a key role in combating such fraudulent activities and ensuring the safety of all residents.
