Chhattisgarh Police on Sunday arrested a 35-year-old man posing as State Intelligence Bureau (SIB) employee for cheating three persons of Rs 15 lakh by promising them police job in a village in Durg district in 2020.
Durg Superintendent of Police Abhishek Pallava identified him as Deependra Kumar Nag from Farasagaon in Kondagaon district.
