The Kharadi police registered a cheating case on Wednesday against Dinesh Verma, who allegedly posed as a seller on an online classifieds platform. According to the police, Zori transferred the money after a test ride and receiving vehicle documents via WhatsApp. Verma claimed his father was hospitalised and needed funds urgently. After payment, a middleman named Vikrant Bhardwaj refused to hand over the motorcycle. Bhardwaj told police that Verma was neither his friend nor connected to the vehicle's owner, and that the money had not reached them.
