According to Superintendent of Police Kaji Kumar Acharya, the spokesperson for the Kathmandu Valley Crime Investigation Office, these individuals lured unemployed youths with promises of high-paying jobs abroad, deceiving them for extended periods without fulfilling their commitments.

Among the accused, Thapa and Ale collected NPR 5.92 million by promising jobs in the United States, Chaurasiya took NPR 400,000 from one individual to facilitate employment in Azerbaijan, and Dulal received NPR 355,000 by claiming to arrange jobs in the UAE.
