Disha Patani¡¯s father falls victim to fraud, duped of Rs 25 lakh with fake government job promise!
In a shocking turn of events, Disha Patani's father, Jagdish Singh Patani, was scammed out of Rs 25 lakh by fraudsters promising him a high-ranking government post. After months of deceit and threats, Patani has filed an FIR against the culprits.
In a jaw-dropping turn of events, Disha Patani¡¯s father, Jagdish Singh Patani, has found himself at the center of a high-stakes scam in Uttar Pradesh, falling prey to fraudsters who promised him a prestigious government position. The former Deputy Superintendent of Police lost a shocking Rs 25 lakh to a group of five con artists who used a mix of fake officers and false political connections to pull off their deceit.
Disha Patani¡¯s father got scammed
It all began when papa Patani was introduced to the scammers through an associate, Shivendra Pratap Singh, who connected him to Diwakar Garg and Acharya Jayaprakash from the Juna Akhara. The con artists spun a web of lies, offering Patani a cushy government position in exchange for a hefty payment. They took Rs 5 lakh in cash and the remaining amount through bank transfers across three different accounts.
The government job fraud
However, as the months dragged on with no job offers or results in sight, Patani began pressing for a refund. That¡¯s when things took a darker turn. The scammers, instead of returning his money, resorted to threats and intimidation. To make their scheme appear more legitimate, they even introduced a fake ¡°officer on special duty¡± named Himanshu. Realizing he had been duped, Patani filed an FIR at Bareilly¡¯s Kotwali police station, accusing the five fraudsters of extortion, intimidation, and fraud.
While the Patani family deals with this shocking betrayal, Disha Patani continues to shine in the spotlight. The actress recently flaunted her stunning beach body on Instagram, posting a series of pictures in a vibrant yellow bikini that left her fans in awe. Captioning the post "#Kanguva and some tan," Disha reminded everyone that her style game is always on point.
Disha Patani¡¯s work front
Disha is also making waves in Tamil cinema with her debut in the much-anticipated film Kanguva, where she stars opposite the talented Suriya. The film has been released to much excitement, adding another feather to Disha¡¯s ever-growing cap. While the scam involving her father makes headlines, Disha is proving once again that nothing can dim her star power!
