The Story in Brief
Police have arrested Anuj Trivedi and his son Prakhar Trivedi after a complaint by Uttar Pradesh BJP MLA Gyan Tiwari. Tiwari alleges he was duped into marrying his daughter, Pragya, to Prakhar in 2024. The MLA says the Trivedis projected themselves as wealthy Mumbai real estate businessmen and hid Prakhar’s alleged criminal past. Tiwari claims Prakhar used fake identities to lure women into relationships and has been involved in around 25 marriages across states, cheating them of crores of rupees. An FIR has been filed at Reusa police station. Tiwari has brought his daughter back home and cut ties with the accused family.
The Indian Opinion
The MLA’s allegations are grave, but this is a one-sided story so far. The accused have been arrested, not convicted. The claim of 25 marriages and crores in fraud needs evidence beyond the complainant’s word. That the police acted swiftly on a politician’s complaint raises a fairness question: would a commoner get the same response? The trial will show how many other victims, if any, come forward.
