The Kurar police have arrested a 28-year-old man who allegedly helped a woman take out two loans from a finance company, and then used her identity and bank account details to dupe her of thousands. The 30-year-old woman from Kurar, who runs a shop, was in need of money when Indrajeet Yadav offered to help her. He used her documents to register at the loan firm and helped her borrow Rs 2.5 lakh.

She got the first loan of Rs 50,000 in October 2021 and two months later, she got Rs 2 lakh in her bank account. One day, Yadav transferred Rs 50,000 from her bank account to himself, but told her that he had repaid the first loan amount, she alleged in her complaint. Meanwhile, EMIs for the second loan were getting auto-debited from her account. However, she noticed another EMI on her account, for a mobile phone worth Rs 24,000, she told the police.
