Ahmedabad: ‘Looteri Dulhan’, has struck once again. This time the victim is from Amraiwadi area of the city. Dilip Parmar, 35 resident of Narayannagar of Amraiwadi fell into the trap as he was unable to find a suitable girl to marry.
The middleman took Rs 1.05 lakh from him to get him married to a girl named Sunita Marathi of Maharashtra. However, on the next morning Parmar found that the girl vanished from his house.

Inspector Odhar Desai of Amraiwadi police station said, based on the FIR lodged by Parmar, working with a courier company, they are searching for the gang along-with the bride.

“We suspect that the gang could have well cheated others using the same modus-operandi. We also urge others who have been cheated in a similar way to contact us and help in nabbing the gang,” added inspector Desai.
