All About the Fake Notes with Anupam Kher’s Face

A bullion trader was allegedly duped of 2.1 kgs of gold after unidentified conmen handed over counterfeit currency featuring the face of noted actor Anupam Kher in Gujarat. The Ahmedabad police have launched an investigation into the matter after receiving a complaint, an official said, according to PTI. According to PTI, the incident left a local bullion trader, identified as Mehul Thakkar, high and dry after he was duped of 2.1 kgs of gold.

Mehul Thakkar filed a complaint with the Navrangpura police station and narrated the entire incident, detailing how he was tricked into accepting 26 bundles of counterfeit Rs 500 notes. The fake currency, which bore the misspelt label "Resole Bank of India," was presented to his staff in exchange for 2.1 kgs of gold on September 24, as per PTI.

An official stated that the saga began when Mehul Thakkar, a gold dealer, received a call from one Prashant Patel, the manager of a jewellery shop whom the bullion trader knew, the news agency reported on Monday. Patel was eager to buy 2.1 kgs of gold, and after some haggling, they settled on a price of Rs 1.60 crore.
