Durlav Roy Chowdhury, 24, an occupant of Salkia in West Bengal’s Howrah locale, worked for various news associations as an independent photographic artist.

During the hunt, the police recuperated 226 copies of US dollar 100 category monetary orders from his ownership, says the news report citing a cop.

Chowdhury was introduced under the watchful eye of the Jhapa District Court and later with the authorization of the court, was placed in the Jhapa prison on charges of conveying counterfeit unfamiliar cash.

Pradip Raj Wanta, leader of the National Photo Journalists Group, has required his delivery guaranteeing that he isn’t connected to any phony cash trick.
