Published On : 01 Feb 2018   |  Reported By : canaranews network


Kasargod: A Nigerian national identified as Royuininus Mathew, was taken into custody by the Hosdurg police for cheating parish priest by providing him false information.

Mathew had claimed with the priest that he happens to be the representative of a priest from a famous church in England. The man, who visited the church in a Royal Enfield Bullet motor bike, had approached the parish priest with fake name, Ruglus.

He said he had come here to tour India and that during his visit to Manipal, he had lost his money, passport, and other documents. He thereafter sought to borrow Rs 3,000 from the priest. After he gave away the money, the priest developed suspicion about the identity of the person. He conveyed information to the police. The police, who took the man into custody and probed him, found two passports in his possession.
