Metro job racket busted, 4 arrested: Kolkata Police

KOLKATA: The cyber cell of the Kolkata Police detective department has nabbed four persons who had allegedly targeted youths in Kolkata during the first Covid wave by offering them fake jobs at Kolkata Metro and asking for money in return.
Based on a complaint from the GM’s office of Kolkata Metro on February 25, the cops launched the probe that lasted for over four months before making a breakthrough even as the accused continued to dupe victims even during second wave.
“The accused had created two fake Metro websites and similar sounding official IDs, (gm@mtp.railnet.gov.in and companysecratru@kmrc.in) dropped the original names of senior railway officers and banked on multiple SIM cards to contact their victims,” said an investigating officer.
The accused have been identified as Sanjay Das (21), Subhendu Ghosh (25), Amit Pal (25) and Abhijit Debnath (20), all residents of Ranaghat in Nadia.
The police said all the accused were arrested on Tuesday.
