Mumbai: A Mumbai resident who returned from the US after receiving a degree in airline studies has been cheated of ₹18 lakh in the name of getting a job in an airline company.
According to Vile Parle police, Shripat Revgade, 63, the father of the victim, filed a complaint that his sons wanted to do a typewriting course and they contacted Henry Paul, through their acquaintance, Sanjay Shinde. Ravgade was told by Shinde that Paul can help to get his son a job in the Jet Airways company.
Later, Paul asked Revgade to pay ₹18 lakh for the job and another woman, who was at Paul’s office in Andheri, asked for ₹3 lakh for a typewriting course. Revgade told them that he would pay in instalments and gave the money from September 2017 to March 2018. However, Jet Airways was closed in 2019.
