Police have arrested Anuj Trivedi and his son Prakhar Trivedi after Uttar Pradesh BJP MLA Gyan Tiwari filed a complaint alleging he was duped into marrying his daughter to Prakhar, a conman who has allegedly cheated many women across states using fake identities and carried out around 25 marriages.
Tiwari said he severed all ties with the accused family and brought his daughter home. A case for cheating has been registered at Reusa police station. Tiwari demanded strict punishment, including the death penalty, for the father-son duo if found guilty.
This case will likely be used to paint all arranged marriages as risky, but the real fault lies in inadequate background checks. Yet, the MLA's complaint cannot be dismissed as mere personal vendetta; the alleged scale of fraud, 25 marriages across states, demands a thorough investigation. The key test: can the police document each victim and prove a systematic crime network, or will this remain a one-off family dispute?
