NEW DELHI, June 13: A city court has directed police to register a cheating case against a travel agency and probe whether it was cheating people on the pretext of providing them lucrative jobs in Canada.Metropolitan Magistrate Rajnish Kumar directed the GK police to register a case against World Link Centre (WLC) on the complaint filed by Bal Mukund of Maharajgarh district in UP alleging that the agency had cheated him of Rs 53,500. He had been promised a job in Sea Cruise Enterprises (SCE), a shipping company in Canada. Bal Mukund in his complaint filed through counsel Anil Rakhra alleged that WLC owners Nandkumar, his brother Madanlal and sister Asha Singh had promised him a job in the SCE with a salary of 24,000 dollars a year on a payment of 1.25 lakh. But he had paid only Rs 68,500 between November 1997 and April 1998.
Following a newspaper report in May last year that SCE had cheated many on the pretext of providing them jobs through their agents, Bal Mukund demanded his money back but was refunded only Rs 15,000.
