Three people have been arrested here for allegedly trying to dupe the Life Insurance Corporation of India by claiming an insurance amount of Rs 2 crore by furnishing a fake death certificate, police said on Wednesday.

A woman posing as the mother of one of the arrested men had taken out the policy in his name in April 2015, said an official of Shivaji Park police station.
In March 2017, she filed an application claiming the insured sum of Rs 2 crore, stating that her son died in a road accident in Pune in December 2016.
