An engineer from Sundargarh district, now working in Jamnagar, Gujarat, was allegedly cheated by his wife of lakhs of rupees. More shockingly, the accused did never tell him that she had married earlier and separated with her former husband.
The victim youth lodged a FIR in the Jamnagar police station against his wife and the Gujarat police reached Rourkela and searched for the accused. However, since the accused was absconding, the police team went back empty-handed.
According to sources, Rajesh works as an engineer in l&T in Jamnagar Gujarat. Rajesh’s father earlier was working in l&T , Kansbahal in Sundargarh district. One Rita’s (name changed) father was also working in l&T , Kansbahal. Both Rajesh’s family and Rita’s family had known each other.
After retirement of fathers of Rajesh and Rita, they went to their respective villages. Rajesh after getting a job in l&T Jamnagar had gone thereto work.
Rita had married one youth of Dhenkanal on November 29, 2009. She had stayed with her for two years. later, she separated from him over some dispute and lodged a dowry torture case against him in Kujang police station.
After being separated, she had come to her parents’ house. Rita in January, 2012, had requested old friend Rajesh for friendship on facebook. Rajesh had no idea about Rita’s earlier marriage and separation but Rita had constantly enticed Rajesh to marry her. Rajesh finally had done for court marriage with Rita at Jamnagar on January 13, 2016. Rita stayed with Rajesh at Jamnagar for about two months after marriage and had got Rajesh’s ATM card to use.
Rita one day had told Rajesh that she would go to see her ailing mother at Rourkela. After coming to Rourkela, Rita had taken plea before Rajesh that she would take banking coaching and had not returned to Jamnagar after five months of her departure from Jamnagar. Rajesh used to send Rs 10,000 per month towards Rita’s ailing mother’s expenses and Rita’s coaching expenses. Rita also used to take money from his ATM card to spend and had allegedly drawn more than Rs 5 lakh from Rajesh’s account.
Suddenly, one day Rajesh found Rita’s mobile was switched off.

When Rajesh could not contact Rita, he lodged a FIR in Jamnagar police station.
