A young man who made a living from deceiving the public - has been arrested after his trick was uncovered. According to reports, the suspect pretended to be handicapped as he begged in public with a fake amputated hand.
It was gathered that the fake beggar's trick was exposed after his friend saw him begging with the "injured" hand.
Police rushed at the scene and ordered him to remove the cloths he had covered his hand with and all the passersby were shocked.
It was reported that the young man has been covering his hand with dirty rugs faking to be amputated in order to collect as much money as he can from the unsuspecting sympathizers.
