Acting swiftly, Ghaziabad police traced the call to Panchwati Colony, but the suspect initially managed to evade arrest, said Assistant Commissioner of Police Ritesh Tripathi.
Subsequently, Ghaziabad authorities alerted Delhi Police, who later apprehended the accused. Tripathi is now being questioned by the Special Cell of the Delhi Police at their northwest Delhi office.
According to police sources, the suspect is a known fraudster who frequently operates under multiple identities, raising concerns about his background and motives.
