“The accused are habitual offenders involved in several such cases in Gurugram, Rewari, Rajasthan, and Mumbai. Rewari police has also announced a Rs 5,000 reward for Saifuddin in a theft-related case,” Sandeep Kumar, Gurugram police spokesperson, said.
According to the police, on April 7, a woman at a police station filed a police complaint that she had gone to Baluda Road for a walk in the morning; there she met a person who told her that he was a devotee of God and said that he would relieve her of her sorrows.

She gave her jewellery to those people.
Later, as per the instructions of those people, the victim went plucking leaves from the trees, and when she returned, the accused fled the spot, police said.
During police questioning, the accused Saifuddin has revealed that he has committed an incident of theft in Rajasthan and an incident of fraud in Rewari district.
In both the above cases, a reward of Rs 5,000 each was declared on accused Saifuddin.
The accused Shahzad and Khurshid have also revealed that they have committed fraud in Mumbai.
