Kollam residents allege recruitment fraud

Four Kollam residents have filed police complaints alleging recruitment fraud stating they have been duped lakhs of rupees on the pretext of offering overseas jobs.

In a press meet here on Wednesday, they said around 20 job aspirants from various parts of Kerala had paid large sums of money to a Malappuram-based gang for jobs in the United Arab Emirates.

“We were cheated by one Sanjay Menon, his mother A.V Jalaja, his friend K. Shijith, and Abdul Razak. They should be brought before the law and action should be taken to get our money back,” said Sasthamcotta resident B.Ajayakumar. Other Kollam residents who had been duped by the gang included Poruvazhi resident Unnikrishna Pillai, Muthupilakkad resident J.S. Harilal, and Sooranadu North resident Anirudhan.
