Two cheat jewellers with fakes

Vadodara: Two persons were arrested and one was declared as wanted for cheating three jewellers in different areas of the city.
The accused Kanchan Senva and his wife Pravina used to visit the jewellery shop and replace gold jewellery with imitation ones. Along with Senva, a man named Nimesh Rawal was arrested for buying the jewellery from him.
According to police, the couple visited jewellers in Gotri and MG Road near Mandvi as customers this month and in December last year. At all jewellery shops they used to ask for gold rings.
“After choosing a particular design they used to pay Rs 500 advance and tell the shop keeper that they will collect the jewellery after a fortnight by paying the remaining amount,” said a police official.
Police said that Pravina used to replace the rings with fake ones when the shop keeper would be looking away.
