The Civil Lines police station registered the case against the three and investigated the case.

The victim is an employee of railways. The man is the husband of Chitra Amrawanshi also works with the victim. He asked the victim to meet his wife Chitra and after meeting they became friends.

One day, Chitra said that victim is having illicit relations with her husband and asked her to pay the money. After some time, Chitra took Rs 3 lakh from the victim. One more woman Rani Dwivedi accompanied Chitra who also lives in the same colony.

These two - Chitra and Rani - thrashed the victim and mounted pressure to pay more money to them or they will tell the victim’s family about the relationship. The duo as and when reached the house of the victim would take away Rs 10,000 to 15,000 from her.

The two did not stop there. They told the fake story to the victim’s husband and the husband left the woman alone in Jabalpur and started living in Satna along with the children.

On October 5, a phone call came on victim’s mobile phone in which self-declared journalist Vikas Dwivedi asked the victim to pay Rs 10 lakh failing which he said he will file complaint with divisional railway manager (DRM) and she will be thrown out from services.
