Cases of cheating and fraud are being heard continuously on social media, but people are still falling prey to it. Similarly, now another case has come from Punjab. The groom, who lives in Dubai in Punjab, came to Moga district with the wedding procession, but he did not find the bride there. The groom did not even find the marriage palace in the city that he was told about. When I called the bride, I found her phone switched off. After this the groom had to return without the bride.
According to the information received from the police, Deepak Kumar of Madiyala village of Nakodar tehsil of Jalandhar used to work as a servant in Dubai. Deepak had befriended a girl named Manpreet on social media. Friendship gradually turned into love and both decided to get married. However, both of them never met each other nor did anyone ever see each other. Both of them fixed the date of December 2 for the wedding at Rose Garden Palace, Moga.
When was the marriage to take place?
Deepak started preparing for the wedding considering December 2 as the final date, but on November 29, Manpreet called and said that her father was unwell. In such a situation, the wedding date will have to be postponed. After listening to Manpreet, Deepak said that if not on 2nd then they will get married on 6th December. The girl also accepted this statement of Deepak. Deepak told that the girl had also taken Rs 60 thousand from him on the pretext of her father’s illness.

Then Manpreet said to come with the wedding procession to Rose Garden which is near Geeta Bhawan. In such a situation, when I called him after reaching Moga, he disconnected the phone and later switched it off. When it got quite late, we asked around about the Rose Garden. Then we came to know that there is no palace named Rose Garden here. Deepak said that I have brought a wedding procession of 150 people, but the girl cheated me and insulted my family.
