Indore (Madhya Pradesh): Following the arrest of five people, including Shweta Vijay Jain from Bhopal, in connection with the alleged honey-trap case, another woman named Reshu, alias Abhilasha, was detained by the city crime branch. Police on Wednesday stated she was detained to gather information as her name emerged as an associate of Jain.
According to sources, Reshu, originally from Sagar district, is being questioned in secret. Although her name is not yet included in the First Information Report (FIR), investigators believe she is a key figure. Police added that Jain, a resident of Bhopal and a suspect in the 2019 honey-trap case, is considered a conspirator alongside Alka Dixit and Reshu. Dixit reportedly has more than a dozen criminal cases registered against her.
Police said that on the night of April 28, Chintu Thakur was allegedly stopped on the Super Corridor by Dixit, her son Jaideep, and Lakhan Choudhary.
The suspects allegedly assaulted him, threatened to release videos and photographs, and demanded Rs1 crore as extortion money.
According to the complaint, the dispute started after property businessman Choudhary allegedly offered Thakur a 50% partnership in his property business.
