A man named Sunil Dandiyal from Gurugram was arrested for allegedly defrauding a woman of ₹90,000 by promising to arrange travel visas for her family. The incident came to light when the victim filed a complaint on September 15, 2024, stating that Dandiyal had taken the money but failed to secure the visas. After the complaint, the police initiated an investigation, which led to Dandiyal's arrest and the recovery of the entire amount.

Dandiyal, a resident of Vinod Nagar in Delhi, was apprehended by the Gurugram Crime Unit, and his actions are now under further scrutiny. Authorities are investigating whether he has been involved in similar scams in the past, as they believe this could be part of a broader pattern of fraudulent activity targeting individuals seeking visa assistance.

This case highlights the increasing issue of travel and visa scams, where fraudsters exploit individuals by offering fake services. The incident has raised concerns about the need for greater awareness and caution when dealing with such services, as many scammers operate without proper credentials or authorization.

The authorities are committed to holding Dandiyal accountable and are continuing their investigation into the matter. The victim has been assured that justice will be served, and the recovered money has been returned.
