The trap...
According to the complaint, the accused, Dr Amit Kushwaha, was living as a tenant at the woman’s house. When Geeta Ben’s husband fell seriously ill, the accused offered to help and claimed that he would provide proper treatment.
The accused later took the woman’s husband to a hospital in Bhopal for treatment. After the treatment, the hospital bill came to around ₹30,000.
For paying this amount, the accused asked Geeta Ben to sign a blank cheque, to clear the hospital bill. Believing his words, she signed the cheque.
However, the accused allegedly misused the blank cheque and transferred ₹10 lakh from the woman’s bank account into his own account. The fraud came to light when Geeta Ben received information from her bank about the large transaction.
