Maharashtra Fraud: ‘Godwoman’, 2 Others Detained In Nashik For Duping Pune Techie Of ₹14 Crore

Pune, Nov 7: A self-proclaimed godwoman and two others have been detained in a case in Pune where she allegedly duped an IT professional of Rs 14 crore on pretext of healing his two daughters battling health issues through her "spiritual powers", police said on Friday.

The software engineer, Dipak Dolas, a few days ago approached the Pune police with a complaint alleging he was cheated by the godwoman who claimed to possess spiritual healing powers.

Police Action

Police Commissioner Amitesh Kumar said, "A case of cheating was lodged at the Kothrud Police station and later it was transferred to the Economic Offences Wing (EOW). Three persons were detained from Nashik. The process to arrest them was underway." Police confirmed the self-styled healer was among those detained, but did not provide further details.

How the Fraud Happened

The complainant claimed the godwoman assured his family that she could heal his daughters by invoking "divine intervention".

She persuaded them to sell their properties, including a house in the United Kingdom, where the techie once worked, real estate in Pune, and agricultural land in their native village.
