In order to claim an insurance amount of Rs. 1 crore, a 35-year-old woman acted dead and finally got arrested.
According to the woman has been arrested for allegedly declaring herself “dead” in a bid to fraudulently claim Rs 1 crore from a private insurance company at the behest of her husband.
Their plan was foiled by alert officials of the firm who found that the claimant was alive. The woman’s husband Syed Shakeel Alam, a real estate agent who allegedly submitted “fake” documents declaring that his policy-holder wife had died, is on the run.
Alam had taken the insurance policy coverage of Rs 1 crore in his wife’s name in 2012 and used to pay Rs 11,800 towards the annual premium. However, the insurance company official found that the policy-holder woman was alive and subsequently approached the police.
