The scheme unfolded on Wednesday evening when a man filed a
police report, alleging that he had been attacked by three unidentified
individuals. According to his account, he had been stabbed in the thigh and
robbed of the substantial sum of JD13,000 that he had been carrying, the Jordan
News Agency, Petra reported.
The alleged assailants had swiftly escaped with the money.
However, meticulous examination of the
crime scene, coupled
with extensive information gathering and verification, led investigators to
conclude that the entire incident had been fabricated by the man as a ploy to
steal the funds.
Subsequently, detectives subjected the suspect to intense
questioning, ultimately extracting a confession from him. He admitted to
concealing the money in a warehouse, providing the
police with the crucial information necessary to locate the hidden stash. The spokesperson emphasized
that the suspect will face judicial proceedings and be brought to trial for his
actions.
