Insta Love Turns to Heartbreak: Groom Left Searching for Bride at Wedding Venue; Turns Back Empty-Handed After a Disturbing Discovery: WATCH

Jalandhar (The Uttam Hindu): A wedding that began with excitement and celebration ended in heartbreak and deception when Deepak Kumar from Jalandhar, along with his 150-member baraat, was left stranded at the supposed wedding venue in Moga. Deepak, who had been in an online relationship with Manpreet Kaur for three years, traveled from Dubai to marry her, but on the big day, the bride and the venue were nowhere to be found.

Deepak, a resident of Mandiala village, had never met the girl in person, though they had built their relationship over three years through Instagram. Their wedding was set for December 6 in Moga at the Rose Garden Palace, which was booked for the occasion. However, when Deepak and his baraat reached the venue at noon, they discovered there was no such palace in Moga.

After reaching the location, Deepak attempted to call the bride, who initially told him to wait, but soon after, her phone was switched off. Despite waiting for hours at Lohara Chowk from 12 pm to 6 pm, neither Manpreet nor any of her relatives arrived. Feeling deceived, Deepak and his father filed a police complaint.

According to Deepak, the girl had also asked for 50-60 thousand rupees for wedding expenses, but when the groom's party arrived, no one showed up. Deepak's father, Prem Chand, confirmed that he had only communicated with the girl and not her parents. The wedding was initially planned for December 2 but was postponed to December 6 due to the bride's father being unwell.

Moga police have initiated an investigation into the matter. ASI Harjinder Singh confirmed the complaint and stated that the investigation will begin with the phone number provided by the bride, and further steps will be taken using available details and call recordings.

Deepak Kumar is demanding justice and action against those responsible for the deception.
