Some people in Jaipur tried to trick a rich businessman into giving them a lot of money.
They pretended to be bad guys and threatened him.
They knew about the businessman because his mother went to a hospital, and the people planning the scam worked there or knew people who did.
The police caught the people who were trying to do the scam after tracking them.
They also found some of the things they used to threaten the businessman, like phones and a car.
Jaipur police arrested four men for allegedly attempting to extort Rs 10 crore from a steel trader.
