DCP said the complainant was thoroughly questioned after that section 419/420 IPC was also added in the case. The bank account in which the money was deposited by the complainant was analyzed and it was found that the account was in the name of a resident of Muzzafar Nagar, Uttar Pradesh. A raid was conducted on the address but it was noticed that the accused rarely went to his house.

The accused had switched off his mobile phone thus it was difficult to trace his location.

Acting on this input, the team laid a trap at and around PVR Saket and after continuous searching for two hours, the accused was arrested while he was waiting for another female Doctor who was about to come to meet him for a seat in AIIMS, DCP further informed UNI.

The accused told police that he had duped over a dozen female doctors. He used to make fake profiles on social media by impersonating himself as a doctor in AIIMS Hospital and contacted female doctors and cheated them on the pretext of helping them in getting PG seat in AIIMS Delhi, the DCP added.

The police said he was working as a clothes vendor in Hyderabad, Visakhapatnam and other places for the last three years and only used to visit Delhi when he used to take money or get the money transferred into his account. He used to change his mobile numbers regularly and mostly switched off his mobile after making calls.
