Bengaluru: A 26-year-old man was arrested by Subramanya Nagar police for cheating many people of several lakhs by posing as an army officer.

It is gathered that Agnesh had taken money from people after assuring to buy them valuables like cars, mobile phones and other electronic gadgets at a discounted price by using his army ID card.
He was arrested after one of his victims lodged a complaint with the police on April 8, stating that the suspect had taken Rs 22 lakh from him to buy several valuables at a discounted price.
Anesh reportedly told police that he was a soldier at the MEG centre and was dismissed a few years ago, though police are yet to verify his claim.
