A woman from Uttarakhand has been arrested after allegedly orchestrating a decade-long scheme involving multiple marriages and defrauding men out of Rs 1.25 crore in settlements.
Identified as Seema, also known as Nikki, the woman targeted her victims through matrimonial websites, often choosing men who were divorced or widowed.
Seema’s fraudulent activities began in 2013 when she married a businessman from Agra. Shortly after the wedding, she filed a legal case against the man’s family, eventually receiving Rs 75 lakh as part of a compromise settlement.
In 2017, she married a software engineer from Gurugram. Following a similar pattern, she parted ways with him after obtaining Rs 10 lakh as a settlement.
Her most recent victim was a Jaipur-based businessman, whom she married in 2023. Not long after, Seema fled his home with jewellery and cash worth Rs 36 lakh. The family lodged a complaint, leading to Seema’s arrest by Jaipur Police.
Investigations revealed that Seema had been using matrimonial sites to find her targets, strategically marrying men in different states to avoid suspicion. Her actions allowed her to accumulate Rs 1.25 crore over the years through legal settlements and theft.
