CHENNAI:

 A 32-year-old man, who posed as a government doctor, has been arrested on the day of his marriage reception in Madhavaram. The suspect, identified as Karthik of Coimbatore, had cheated another woman posing as a doctor and took Rs 12lakh from her parents.

In the latest incident, he had collected Rs 10lakh from the bride’s mother. The bride’s family became suspicious when the man, on the day of the reception, demanded another Rs 1lakh.

Karthik was introduced by the bride’s family friend Thai Anban of Kolathur. Thai Anban was an engineer in a firm in the city. He had met Karthik six months back in Coimbatore, when he had gone there for official work. The two became friends when Karthik asked Thai Anban to look for a rented house in Chennai as he would be working in the GH. Thai Anban arranged a place for Karthik in Villivakkam. He pretended to hail from a wealthy family and claimed that he was orphan.

Thai Anban’s friend, a nurse, was looking for a bridegroom and they decided to get the woman married to Karthik, police said.

Soon after the marriage was fixed, Karthik collected Rs 10lakh from the nurse.
