Delhi Police bust honey trap racket, arrest three men posing as cops for targeting rich individuals. Police recovered significant evidence from the trio’s possession, including two police uniforms, fake ID cards of a Delhi Police Sub-Inspector, and two scooters. The trio’s criminal activities were extensive, with Neeraj identified as the leader of the gang, a man with a history of three criminal cases tied to similar honey-trap schemes. They would first target wealthy individuals in the age group of 50 to 60 through social media, establishing trust and building a rapport. Once they had their victims in their clutches, they would lure them to a predetermined location, where they would pose as police officers and accuse the victims of illicit behaviour. The gang would then threaten to expose private and compromising images unless the victims paid up, often out of fear and shame, choosing to comply rather than report the crime. The police are questioning the culprits to uncover more details about the gang’s operations and to track down any additional members involved.
