Tirunelveli, Tamil Nadu: Tirunelveli District Superintendent of Police Mr. N. Silambarasan, IPS, has issued a public warning regarding the increasing incidents of house rental and lease-related frauds.
In several cases, individuals have reportedly rented or leased houses from owners and later, without the owners’ knowledge, sublet them to others for a higher amount, thereby committing fraud.
The SP advised that homeowners must verify that the individuals who signed the rental or lease agreement are indeed residing in the property themselves. He further emphasized that subletting a rented or leased house without the owner’s permission is a criminal offence, and those found guilty will face strict legal action under relevant laws.
