PAUL ONYEJI AUTH AND HIS NETWORK TARGETED VICTIMS BY USING FAKE MATRIMONY PROFILES, POLICE OFFICERS SAID
Possessing forged identity documents and using fake passports to create false digital identities is a serious offence impacting national security and law enforcement, the Delhi high court held, while denying bail to a foreign national accused of duping people through fake matrimony profiles and morphed digital identities.
A bench of justice Shailender Kaur denied bail to foreign national Paul Onyeji Auth on July 10, after a trial court denied him bail in 2023. In his plea, Atuh contended that he had already spent three years in jail for an offence in which he was falsely implicated.
