The accused approached the victim and told her that they know a piece of land which could be a good source of investment and income. One of them coaxed the woman to liquidate her fixed deposit and used the amount to buy land which he had not shown to the woman. The victim later realised that she had been cheated. But before that one of the accused threatened to kill her. He also sexually exploited her on several occasions and took ₹66 lakh from her on the pretext of buying land.
