More sensational news has emerged from Guwahati concerning what appears to be yet another case of honey trapping. A businessman by name, Harpal Singh, is said to have been blackmailed and defrauded to the tune of about Rs 12 lakh by a model posing as a woman.

In the complaint lodged by the businessman’s wife at Hatigaon police station, the woman is said to have forced part of the money under the pretense of just being friends and subsequently wooing her. She also threatened to leak his private pictures to make him pay.

The businessman’s wife says that the accused, who went by numerous names including Tina, Pari, and Zina, ensnared her husband into a false relationship, starting off as friends before pretending to fall in love just to swindle money from him.

The statements made with the bank show that there were new names with each transaction. All of these payments besides a few came via Google Pay ranging from Rs 500 to Rs 15000.
