Navyman wife held for forgery
The woman, whose complaint of wife-swapping rocked the Naval base in Kochi in April, was arrested by the Delhi police for allegedly committing a forgery in procuring credit card in the name of her estranged husband on Saturday.
The police arrested the woman from her residence in south Delhi under Section 420 (cheating), 468 and 471 (forgery) and Emblem and Name (Prevention of Improper Use) Act, the Delhi police official said. Kamini Jaiswal, counsel for the accused in swapping case, has denied the charges and said it was an attempt to malign her client and accused the Delhi police of torturing.
Ms Jaiswal said that her client was dragged from her house and beaten. “As a result of this, she has received injuries and the police has not been ensuring a proper medical check up,” alleged Jaiswal.
She said that her client had been informing her about the repeated threats received by her and warnings dire consequences if she did not withdraw her complaint in which she has named senior naval officials. According to the police, the accused was arrested from Jia Sarai after SBI’s IIT branch complained that she was trying to procure a credit card in the name of her estranged husband using his forged PAN card and employment letter of the Indian Navy.
According to the police, the bank has videographed everything pertaining to the alleged procurement of the credit card.
