Bhubaneswar: The Cyber Crime Unit of Odisha Crime Branch arrested a man for allegedly conning several middle-aged women across India by marrying them, and then exploiting them financially.

The man, identified as Biranchi Narayan Nath of Chhendipada in Angul district, targeted these women through a matrimonial website. He identified himself as a railway employee, an Income Tax inspector or a Customs officer on his different fake profiles. He targeted middle-aged women who were unmarried, divorced or widowed, police said.
