Mudasir poses as Anirudh on dating app to trap Bengaluru woman

A Bengaluru-based woman was cheated by a Muslim man who posed as a Hindu on a dating app. He duped her of Rs 1 lakh money and had a physical relationship with her on the promise of marriage.

Karnataka police arrested a man named Mudasir for creating a fake profile with a Hidu name Anirudh on Bumble. He found the victim on the app and contacted her. They met on many occasions and had physical relationship as Mudasir promised to marry her. On one such occasion, he claimed that his mother was ailing and needed treatment in the UK.

Under this pretext, he took Rs 1 lakh from the woman. Later he told her that his mother passed away and that he was going to meet his brother in Dubai. After that when the woman tried calling him his mobile phone was switched off. His brother’s mobile number also turned out to be fake.

A little while later, the victim found him on social media under his original name Mudasir and came to know that he was married and had children. She filed a complaint at the Amruthahalli police station. Mudasir has been booked under Section 420 (cheating and dishonestly inducing delivery of property). After tracing him based on his call records, police arrested him.

Cops are investigating whether Mudasir cheated other women with the fake identity on dating apps. Recently, in another similar case in Karnataka, a woman was trapped through grooming jihad by a Muslim man who introduced himself as a Christian.  Al Mehafuz Barapoya who claimed to be from Assam introduced himself as a Christian with the name Melvin.

The woman fell in love with him and was in a relationship with him until she found out his real identity through his Aadhaar. After that, she broke up with him but was harassed and threatened. Muslim men faking their identity to trap non-Muslim girls has become a menace and unless girls are extremely careful they end up in suitcases and fridges.
