The Supreme Court has stayed a criminal case against Anupam Mittal, the founder and CEO of the matchmaking platform Shaadi.com. A complaint was filed by a Hyderabad-based woman who alleged being defrauded by a man she met on the matrimonial platform, as per a report by Bar and Bench.
Shaadi.com was later named in the case for failing to verify the scammer’s identity. As claimed by the woman, Shaadi.com’s negligence allowed the fraud to happen. Authorities argued that since Shaadi.com charges for premium services like “Select Shaadi,” it must verify user details.
