The RCF police have arrested a 23-year-old woman who conned a man out of Rs 27 lakh by promising to secure admission for his son to a pilot course with a well-known airline. Interestingly, she had told her parents that she was pursuing the course and took money from them as well.
According to the police, the woman has been identified as Sharadi Shashikant Pai, 23, a resident of Chembur. Pai had completed her BMS and took money from her parents telling them she was enrolling in a pilot training course. The victim Prashant Mhatre in his statement said his son Aniket wanted to do the pilot course. As Pai’s father and Mhatre work in the same company, Pai had told Mhatre about his daughter pursuing the course.
