Satyananda Sharma</td></tr></tbody></table>He claims to be an orphan brought up at a Good Samaritan's home in Bhopal. He retained their address, completed his MBA and MSW in Bangalore, and in 2004, started Saramsh Handicraft. Police say he would cheat artisans, extracting goods worth Rs 5,000 for just Rs 2,000. If they protested, he would allegedly threaten them. He sold the goods and made a profit. Around this time, he also struck a friendship with Abhilasha Poorva, a local girl, and allegedly cheated her of nearly Rs 4 lakh through illegal ATM transactions. The girl filed a complaint in 2008 but he managed to elude the police. He then changed his office from Cox Town to Benson Town and started another NGO called Home of Love for orphans and elderly people. Satyananda also befriended Ramyadarshini, a girl from Pondicherry, over the Internet. She was depressed she wasn't able to get a post-graduation seat in the neurology stream. Satyananda called her to Bangalore to serve at the NGO as a doctor. But when Ramyadarshini arrived, she didn't see any old people or orphans at the NGO but he reportedly convinced her to stay for a week. Fraser Town police arrested him on charges of abducting Ramyadarshini but he managed to get bail. "More people may come forward with complaints after seeing his picture in the newspaper," said Frazer Town sub-inspector M L Subramanya Swamy. "There are many twists in the cases and we should proceed very cautiously."
