The Mumbai police have arrested a 21-year-old student from Gujarat for allegedly duping a 16-year-old city girl whom he had befriended on social media, an official said on Wednesday. The police have found that he has cheated girls in many other states as well.

Accused Yash Bulchandani, a resident of Nadiad, became friends with the girl from suburban Andheri on Instagram last month and the two decided to meet, said the official.
