Popular Tamil television anchor and serial artiste Anisha has been arrested along with her brother following a cheating case. The duo has been accused of defrauding Rs. 37 lakhs.

Here are the details of the case. Anisha's husband Shakthi Murugan is said to have posed as a millionaire and driving rented Audis and Jaguars, he had visited an AC showroom and told the owner Prashanth that he needed 103 units for his newly opened hotel. Seeing his outward appearance, the showroom manager delivered the pieces against a cheque of Rs. 37 lakh in April this year. This just played out like in films!

Reportedly, when Prashanth deposited the cheque in his bank account, it bounced as there was no money in Shakthi Murugan's account. When he contacted the defaulter, he started evading him and then another shock was in store for Prashantha when he discovered that the AC machines he had delivered to Shakthi were sold by the accused online. This is when the victim went to the police.

During the police investigation, another fraud by Shakti Murugan came to light. He had advertised that costly cars like BMWs, Audis and Jaguars were needed for his travels and that he would pay them attractive rents. Many luxury car owners had tied up with him but in due course. Shakti then illegally sold cars worth Rs. 64 lakhs.

The husband has been absconding.
