Fake accidents back after a lull
Mysuru: Criminals on two-wheelers have resurfaced, targeting four-wheeler drivers in a deceptive scheme aimed at extorting money. These unscrupulous individuals falsely accuse their victims of causing accidents, exploiting the vulnerabilities of aged drivers who may be less familiar with such fraudulent tactics.
The last case reported in Mysuru city was in April 2024 and after a noticeable lull in these criminal activities, one more case was reported in the city yesterday morning where the owner of a high-end car was targeted, indicating that these brazen criminals are back in action.
K.C. Vijay Kumar, a 55-year-old resident of Yadavagiri, was driving his Toyota Hyryder at 11 am near Akashvani Circle towards Dasappa Circle near the Railway playground on KRS Road when he heard a thud sound, akin to someone beating his car with bare hands. The road was full with tourist cars and other vehicles.
