New Delhi : Two women were arrested here for extorting money from men by threatening to implicate them in false rape cases, the police said Friday.
Sunita and Preeti were arrested from Sarojini Nagar area for extorting money from Nishant Gaur by threatening to implicate him in a false rape case.
Gaur, who works for Hello Mineral Water in Safdarjung Enclave, was on his way to Chankyapuri when he stopped his motorcycle to answer a phone call.
“Suddenly three women appeared at the scene. One of them sat on his motorcycle and another lady stood in front. The third woman took out the keys of his motorcycle and demanded money. They said they would all raise an alarm and implicate him in a rape case,” Deputy Commissioner of Police (southwest Delhi) Shalini Singh said.
“The women took Rs.100 from Gaur and let him go. Gaur complained to us and we found the same group of women were on the look out for another victim in the Sarojini Nagar area. We caught two of the women but the third one managed to flee,” she said.
