The Central police arrested a man for allegedly cheating job aspirants of lakhs of rupees through a fake overseas recruitment drive as COVID volunteers to Europe through his recruitment firm on Diwan’s Road. The arrested man was identified as Thajudheen aka Dileep, 49, of Nedumangad. C.H. Nagaraju, District Police Chief (Kochi City), had received a tip-off about a fake overseas recruitment drive being held in the city taking advantage of the pandemic. A probe conducted by the police led to the arrest. The accused had operated a premier office and had given the staff impressive sounding names to lure job aspirants. The number of an office staffer with the fake name Manthra was publicised.
The Union and State governments provided support in several ways to the needy people, but private institutions should also extend help, especially to those requiring medical assistance, said C.P. Rajkumar, Managing Director, Nalam Multispeciality Hospital, here on Saturday. Speaking at a function to honour Inspector General of Police V. Balakrishnan and neurologist S. Meenakshisundaram with C. Palaniappan Memorial Award for their contribution to society and Nalam Kappom medical adoption of Type-1 diabetic children, he said the governments implemented numerous welfare programmes, but the timely help by a private hospital or a doctor in the neighbourhood to the people in need would go a long way in safeguarding their lives.
