Faridabad police arrested a mother and her daughter on Monday for drugging, robbing, and extorting men from a dating app.
Investigators revealed that the accused duo specifically targeted financially well-off individuals by sending them friendship requests on Tinder.
The women lured their targets to local hotels under the simple pretext of meeting up for a casual date.
Once inside the hotel rooms, the mother and daughter spiked their victims’ drinks with potent sedatives to incapacitate them.
The suspects quickly robbed the unconscious men of their valuables and cash before fleeing the hotel premises without raising suspicion.
Beyond physical theft, the pair systematically extorted large sums of money from the victims using severe legal intimidation tactics.
They threatened to file fabricated rape complaints against the men at local police stations to instill deep fear of prosecution.
In several instances, the women actually submitted false police reports to heighten pressure and force immediate financial settlements.
Fearing ruined reputations and lengthy legal battles, multiple terrified victims quietly paid the extortion money to the accused duo.
Police officials confirmed that the mother-daughter team operated this lucrative honey-trap and blackmail racket across multiple Indian cities.
During intense custodial interrogation, the suspects confessed to executing identical crimes across the Andaman Islands, Surat, and Delhi-NCR.
A Faridabad police spokesperson stated that law enforcement teams are actively investigating the case to identify other potential victims.
Authorities are currently tracking the stolen assets and coordinating with police departments in other states to uncover further criminal links.
