Retired Officer’s Son, Daughter‑in‑law Arrested in ₹7 Lakh Alwar Job Scam

Alwar police have registered a third First Information Report (FIR) alleging that the son and daughter‑in‑law of a retired police constable duped individuals of a total of seven lakh rupees by offering them government job placements. The complaint states that the accused collected the money on the pretext of securing posts in various state departments, but no such recruitment was initiated.
The victims, who approached the duo seeking stable employment, were persuaded to pay the sum in installments. Investigators say the fraud was orchestrated from the duo’s residence in Alwar, leveraging the retired officer’s name to gain trust.
Authorities have begun questioning the suspects and are in the process of seizing any documents or bank records that could trace the flow of the illicit funds. The police have warned the public to remain cautious of similar job‑placement scams that have been reported across Rajasthan in recent months.
If proven guilty, the accused could face charges under the Indian Penal Code for cheating, criminal breach of trust and fraud, which carry significant prison terms and fines.
