However, later on at New Delhi the lady heard that the accused is a habitual cheater. The lady then travelled from New Delhi to Srinagar by road, only to register her complaint against the accused Umar Billoo at Tourist police Station.

Investigations into the case have revealed that the mother of accused was never ill and it was a trick of the accused to entice and induce the Korean lady in order to rob her off her money.

In pursuit of speedy justice to the victim, police team lead by SHO Tourist Police Station Inspector Suhail Rasool under the supervision of SSP Enforcement concluded the investigation of case on merits and the chargesheet was filed before the court of Ist Additional Munsif Srinagar on June 9, 2018.
