The man who claimed to have been kidnapped and held hostage by Venezuelan gangsters in the forest, is expected to appear at the Rio Claro Magistrates Court today, following his arrest by Barrackpore Police.
24-year-old coconut water and juice salesman, Shane Ramjattan, was called into the Barrackpore Police Station at about 1pm yesterday.
He was asked to give a statement on his abduction by investigating officers.
However, Ramjattan reportedly changed the story he initially gave to the police.
He was subsequently arrested and charged.
He will go before a Rio Claro Magistrate, today.
