Panchkula, July 4

The police have booked an individual for cheating and alleged extortion. In his complaint to the police, a Morni resident said his daughter was engaged to a boy, Damanjot, who tried to extort money from him by using his daughter’s videos and photographs.

He said his daughter, who was studying at a college in Chandigarh, had come into contact with the boy, adding that the two entered into a contract marriage privately, without his knowledge. He said he was informed by his daughter that Daman had been tracking her movements with the help of an application installed on her phone.
