Sarup Singh had lodged a first information report against the accused. He told the police that he wanted to send his son Surjit Singh abroad and came in contact with Kulwinder Kaur through a family member.
The woman told the victim that she had cleared IELTS, but her family did not have the money needed to send her abroad. The woman promised them a spouse visa for Surjit if they bear the expenses to send her abroad.
