Guwahati: Pubali Dutta, who has been named as an accused in the Jorhat fraud case, has broken her silence and issued a clarification on her Instagram page, claiming that she was unaware of the alleged theft committed by her boyfriend, Yash Dhanuka.

In her statement, Dutta said Dhanuka had taken her to various places for parties and had promised to marry her after six months. She also claimed that he gave her Rs 1 lakh to spend during a trip to Arunachal Pradesh.
