RAJENDRANAGAR: In a bizarre incident, a woman from Hyderabad faked a theft to repay money lost in online games. According to reports, a resident of Rajendranagar shouted to report a theft at her home.

She claimed two individuals broke in, stealing Rs. 25,000, and pushed her before fleeing. However, Rajendranagar police, upon reviewing CCTV footage, found no evidence of thieves.

During interrogation, the woman admitted to borrowing Rs. 25,000 from her friends and losing it in online games. In an attempt to repay the debt, she orchestrated the fake robbery and intentionally disorganised her room to make it look real.
