One person was arrested in Kohima for allegedly duping people with promises of jobs in the Nagaland police department, a Kohima police release said today.

The arrested Ravozo Medeo (24) was presently residing at Mission Compound, Kohima, the release said.

The Kohima police appealed to the people to be cautious of such fraudsters and to report such cases to the police.
