Bengaluru, Aug 27: A student, who was seeking a medical seat in Bengaluru, was allegedly duped of Rs. 9.4 lakh.

In his complaint to the police, Balaji S (18), who hails from Cuddalore in Tamil Nadu, said that after he sought details for courses in Bengaluru on a social media platform, he was contacted by a man who identified himself as Rajkumar Iberwala.

The man assured the student that he could get a seat in a reputed medical college under the management quota and asked him to meet him in M G Road on Thursday.

He told Balaji to get copies of his certificates and Rs 9.4 lakh as initial payment. After a quick meeting, Rajkumar collected the documents and cash and told Balaji to meet him in the college the next day.

After waiting for hours at the college the next day, Balaji realised he had been duped. The Cubbon Park police have taken up a case.
