The Mysuru City police have arrested a 35-year-old man, who has allegedly cheated more than 15 women by marrying them, posing as a doctor or engineer on matrimonial websites, and later decamping with their valuables.
The modus operandi of the accused Mahesh, a resident of Banashankari in Bengaluru, was to upload his profile on matrimonial websites by claiming to be a doctor or engineer and exploit unsuspecting women including divorcees or widows, who were financially independent professionals.
After gaining the trust of his victims, the accused would marry them, only to desert them soon thereafter and abscond with their cash, jewellery and other valuables.
