Allegedly, Patra took money from several people and promised them railway jobs in return, while subsequently bailing on them later. Speaking about the actions, Kanalilal Murmu, a local resident, said Patra had fraudulently promised his nephew a job in exchange for Rs 5 lakh two and a half years back, adding that the leader would not be let go until he dished out the amount. Police subsequently reached the spot, got hold of the accused, and detained him.
