The caller was not ready to hear about my financial condition and kept demanding the ransom amount.
The caller also warned the complainant that if you are detected with cancer or kidney problem, will you not get treated? I know you are using a Fortuner car, how can your financial condition be weak?
The caller reportedly told Sadhanani that he, his wife and son were arrested in a fake note case, but he had successfully escaped from police custody and now he is in hiding. He needed the Rs 50 lakh to get acquitted in the fake note case, while another Rs 50 lakh he needed to flee the nation, the complainant said.
The caller next made a video call on July 12, in which he identified himself as Ravi Devjani, a resident of Dajinagar.
The police said the complaint was filed on Thursday night and the investigation has just begun.
The accused has been booked under various sections of the Indian Penal code on charges of extortion, use of abusive words, criminal intimidation etc.
