Claiming himself as an trainee IPS officer, he approached Nithya, who had posted her profile on the matrimonial site, with a marriage proposal. After finalising the wedding, he asked the woman to financially help him to complete his training and took 10 sovereigns of gold and Rs 10,000 from her. He then went into hiding.
Based on the complaint of M Nithya (29) of Saidapet, CCB police registered a case and launched a search for the man.
Central crime branch police are hunting for the man who they believe was earlier arrested by the Madurai crime branch police in connection with a similar offence. He was then remanded in judicial custody at the Madurai central prison.
He had cheated 16 girls in a similar manner conniving with his relative Perumal.
Police said he had created several fake IDs and posted his profile on matrimonial sites. He used a number of SIM cards to talk to different women. Police said he might have also misused the credit cards of women.

Essex Fire Crews Hold Off Setting Strike Dates and Offer 'Martini' Talks to Councillors to Break Deadlock in Dispute-Any Time, Any Place, Anywhere - Market Wire
ESSEX, ENGLAND--(Marketwire - June 14, 2012) - Essex fire crews have held off from immediately setting strike dates and asked senior councillors to attend 'talks about talks' in a bid to break the deadlock in their dispute. The chair and vice-chair of the fire authority have been given an open invitation to meet with union representatives and national fire service conciliators to explore avenues for resolving the dispute.
Essex Fire Brigades Union says it is placing no restrictions on what can be raised by the councillors nor on who else they chose to bring to exploratory talks. The move follows a statement yesterday from Tony Hedley, the Chair of the fire authority who said talks and were the way forward.
The union has offered 'Martini' talks - anytime, anyplace, anywhere.
Yesterday the FBU announced fire crews had voted TWO to ONE in favour of strike action in a dispute over frontline cuts and changes forced through without proper negotiation or agreement. Current plans for cuts would see the loss of one in five frontline crews in Essex since 2008, with the public already waiting longer for fire crews to turn up to fires in the home.
Mick Rogers FBU brigade secretary said: "The General Secretary has not given immediate notice of strike action so we can explore whether there might be a way forward through conciliation. No one in the fire service wants to take strike action and we are trying to avoid taking action if possible.
"We have written to the Tony Hedley and the vice-chair of the fire authority asking them to attend exploratory talks anytime, anyplace, anywhere. We are placing no restrictions on those talks, nor are we placing any preconditions or limitations on who they can bring with them or what issues are raised.
"We have asked national fire service conciliators - representatives from both employers and unions - to attend to assist in breaking the deadlock and exploring a way forward. These will be open talks with an open agenda to explore a way forward which could, potentially, avoid strike action.
"We're in no doubt that Tony Hedley is genuine in what he has said this week about his desire for talks to resolve the dispute. At this stage we need to set some of the rhetoric aside, and explore what avenues there may be to reach a resolution.
"The fire authority is well aware there are tight legal timescales regarding strike action following a ballot and there is only a small window of opportunity. As a result we have asked them for a response by 2pm on Wednesday 20 June to allow them a reasonable time to consider our proposal."

Pole dancing tutorials on YouTube cure autistic woman's fear of leaving the house - Daily Mail
|
An autistic woman has conquered her fear of leaving the house after learning how to pole dance from YouTube tutorials.
Kaiya Latham, 27, from Braintree, Essex, suffers from Asperger syndrome and spent much of her early 20's trapped at home due to severe anxiety.
But since mastering strenuous dance routines from the comfort of her own home she discovered a newfound confidence and is pursuing dreams of becoming a full-time dance teacher.

Kaiya Latham has conquered her fear of leaving the house after learning to pole dance
Kaiya - who lives with her fiance Simon Sheridan, 35, a graphic designer became increasingly housebound when she was diagnosed with Asperger syndrome - a form of autism which often affects social interaction - when she was 22.
She struggled to leave that house and would become anxious if she had to speak to new people or visit new places.
But once she took up pole dancing as a hobby her fears gradually lessened.
She said: 'I used to dance when I was younger and had trained to become a dance teacher but I never completed my final exams because my condition escalated when I was a teenager.
'It's a really addictive hobby and soon I was making myself leave the house to attend classes,' says Kaiya
'But once I got into pole dancing I began to feel much more confident as you get a real buzz from knowing you can hold your own weight with just your hands on the pole.
'It's a really addictive hobby and soon I was making myself leave the house to attend classes and learn new moves on the pole.'
After she started competing in pole dancing competitions, her friends began coming round to learn some moves and her business grew from there.
Since launching Essex-based company KL Pole Studio last year Kaiya has seen her waiting list grow each week and she is now looking for bigger studio space.
She currently teaches students aged 16 to 60 in four weekly evening classes at a special space at her home.
Kaiya added: 'It's amazing to think how far I've come in less than five years. Back then I would never have even considered having my own company and now I'm fulfilling my dream and teaching dance at a studio.
'I can't believe how much pole dancing has transformed my life.'

The Only Way Is Essex: Gemma Collins confronts James Argent in Marbella special - Daily Mail
|
On the last episode of The Only Way Is Essex, viewers saw Gemma Collins admit to James 'Arg' Argent just how much she likes him, but last night she wasn't so kind.
The blonde reality TV star decided to confront him during a special episode set in Marbella, Spain, after discovering what he's really been saying about her.
Gemma was quick to tell Arg that she was too good for him and didn't hold back when it came to flaunting her body either.
Look at what you're missing! Gemma Collins confronts James 'Arg' Argent on The Only Way Is Marbs
Feeling like a fool: Arg looked embarrassed by what Gemma was saying in front of everyone
As Arg fooled around in the pool with Joey Essex and a few of the other guys following the champagne party, Gemma approached him wearing a black swimming costume and a bright pink sarong.
'Hi Arg, I just wanna say something to you,' she started with. 'You've been going around discussing what happened between us, well let me tell you something now, you don't ever disrespect a girl like that again.'
As she began to untie her sarong, Arg looked on confused as the other partygoers sat around the pool and listened carefully.
Revealing all: The blonde mocked Arg and made it clear that she was too good for him
'Take a good look at this, you ain't ever gonna get this candy,' she said as her sarong fell to the floor.
'I don't get it Gemma,' was all that Arg could say. 'I don't understand.'
'I don't like the way your turned around and say "Oh she's got a pretty face but she's got no metabolism." I'm f***ing sexy James and I know it,' she added.
Look of confusion: Arg looked baffled by what Gemma was saying and doing in front of the crowd
'Take a look at this candy': The blonde reality TV star removed her sarong as she continued her speech
'I know, you're lovely,' he replied. 'So why do you feel the need to make a scene?'
'I don't even want to go out with you Arg,' Gemma continued. 'You disrespect girls. You cheated on Lydia how many times?'
'Well you cheated on Charlie and Rami with me' Arg retaliated with, before Gemma dismissed kissing as cheating.
Not holding back: Gemma told him that he shouldn't 'disrespect girls'
Feeling embarrassed: The dark-haired TV star made out like he didn't know what Gemma was talking about
'You think I'm pretty but I'm too fat to go out with you James. I might not be a size ten but I've got a good heart, so take that and kiss that,' she said as she slapped her bottom and strutted off past her co-stars.
'Kiss my a**e!' she added, as the crowd cheered and Arg sank into the water with his champagne flute.
Gemma arrived late in Marbella, but she didn't waste any time in talking about her situation with Arg.
'Kiss this': Gemma strutted away from the pool to loud cheers from the crowd
She told Billie and Sam Faiers and Jessica Wright that was annoyed with him after hearing what he'd been saying about her, but added: 'When I see James, I'm like butter and melt. When you're like that, you can't resist spreading the butter on the bread.'
But Arg didn't have such complimentary things to say in return, as earlier on in the day when he was asked about his situation with Gemma, he couldn't help but mention her size.
'She's got a pretty face, and I think if she was as skinny as Lydia then she's definitely be prettier than her,' he said, before Joey Essex replied: 'But she's not.'
That's Entertainment: Ricky Rayment and Jessica Wright whisper and giggle as they watch the scene unfold
Arg was quick to insist that he and Gemma were 'just friends' but after revealing the intimate details of what they recently got up to together, the guys told him in no uncertain terms that friends 'don't do that.'
It is unknown where the pair's relationship will go from here, as Arg's ex-girlfriend Lydia is currently loved-up with Tom Kileby, so no doubt he'll feel that he needs to get his own back once again.

Does everyone need a prenup these days? - msnbc.com
NEW YORK — For centuries, men and women didn't marry for love -- they married for money. The union of a man and woman was strictly a business arrangement to create financial security and combine fortunes as well as empires.
Today's couples, at least in the United States, have more freedom in selecting a spouse. But they also have a way out of the partnership: divorce.
That is why more of them are waltzing down the aisle with a prenuptial agreement in hand. Sheila Riesel, a matrimonial attorney at Blank Rome LLP in New York, talks about the trends in prenups.
Q. Are you seeing more prenups?

Hey non-Beliebers! Pop world needs Justin Bieber
A. A prenup is private contract among two individuals. We don't know how many prenups are in existence. Without question, though, prenups are becoming a commonplace occurrence before couples with some financial means, even young ones, tie the knot.
Q. Why are younger couples flocking to prenups? Is it family pressure?
A. The reality is that 50 percent of the time, these marriages end in divorce. People need some downside protection. They may come to a marriage with substantial dollars, be it something that they've earned (a la Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg) or something they've inherited or been given by their families.
Q. Does everyone with money need a prenup?
A. The conventional wisdom is that a prenup is an important thing for the "monied" future spouse if a marriage dissolves; otherwise, their assets will be divided in an equitable distribution or as community property, depending on which state they live in. But prenups give the spouse who doesn't have money a way to peek at their partner's assets -- and negotiate. It's a way of getting to assets you might not otherwise know about.
The negotiation of a prenup is very much dictated by who wants to get married more. To put it as bluntly as possible, often there's a dynamic in a couple that one person is more in love, more committed to getting married. In that context, the other person, monied or not, has the leverage.
Q. Describe a typical prenup.
A. The basic structure is: "Everything in my name is mine, and everything in your name is yours. You will receive X dollars for every year we are married." Sometimes that's also tied to the number of children produced in a marriage.
Q. What's typically covered in the agreement?
A. Existing wealth and business interests are the top priority. A person may have intellectual property rights that need to be protected, too. Or they may be an author and create characters. I know of a prenup where a wine collection was an issue -- it was a very nice wine collection.
In states like New York, the definition of assets is very broad, so prenups will cover advanced degrees that are earned during the marriage. If you are still in school, you have a legitimate concern that the business, law or medical degree you get is a valuable marital asset, and your future earnings could factor into a divorce settlement.
You'll find a confidentiality provision in a prenup when a person is of public interest or has substantial wealth. Both parties agree to keep the existence of the agreement, terms, as well as the information one gathers as a result of the marriage, confidential.
Q. How about unusual provisions in a prenup?
A. I've seen situations where one person has all the money, and the other may be younger and more beautiful. It's been a while, but I've seen prenups tied to weight of one of the spouses -- so long there was not a weight gain, they'd get a certain amount. That's incredibly appalling.
Q. How far before a wedding should you hammer out the details of a prenup?
A. The earlier, the better. Six months before the wedding is ideal, but, on average, most people sign their prenups a month before the wedding. Of course, some people wait until the last minute. I've seen prenups signed on the day of the wedding. That's not smart. You don't want to tarnish the excitement of a wedding day, or leave yourself open to claims of duress.
When a prenup is negotiated, there may be a very clear mission in terms of what needs to be accomplished financially, but it has to be done in a way that doesn't damage the fabric of this nascent relationship.
Q. Do you get a lot of tears in your office?
A. Not usually, and when I do, it speaks to an imbalance in the relationship, where one person is too vulnerable. I do get a lot of anger and disappointment. People who do prenups best see this as something to get done as a business deal.
