Fraudulent Bicycle Tender Scam Leads to FIR Filing

An FIR has been registered following a complaint by Sachin Lakra of SK Cycles, Phase-7, Focal Point. According to the complaint, Lakra was approached by individuals posing as officials from Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, and Kerala. These individuals, identified as MS Sridharan, Rajashekhra P Milapu Raja, Guddipatti Durga Mahesh, and Edar Lane Babu, contacted Lakra with a proposal for the supply of bicycles, promising to assist him in securing a tender.

The accused demanded an advance payment of ₹1.38 crore for their services. However, after Lakra transferred the amount, the accused stopped answering his calls. Realizing he had been defrauded, Lakra filed a police complaint.

Sub-inspector Jagtar Singh, who is leading the investigation, confirmed that an FIR has been lodged under section 420 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) against the suspects. Authorities are now conducting a manhunt to apprehend them.
