Bhupen Patel
The journalist Bhupen Patel has conducted many undercover operations over the course of his career. He has exposed fake film-production companies duping Bollywood aspirants, mental asylums admitting patients without proper medical examinations and an illegal network of agents that arranges “temporary” wives for Arab men looking to have a fling in India. This book recounts in detail some of his operations, and takes us through the process of preparing for and mounting a sting operation.
