Catfishing scams have become all too common in our world of digital media and online dating.
This emotionally charged documentary dives deep into the psychological manipulation, betrayal, and fallout that defined Kirats experience.
The story started in 2009, after Assis cousin, Simran Bhogal, came into the picture.
Bhogals boyfriend, JJ, and she had recently split.
JJ then sought out Assis advice about how to win Bhogal back.
Netflix has proven time and time again its good at making true-crime documentaries.
But which ones are the scariest?
Jandu had apparently faced multiple life-threatening illnesses and couldnt travel to London.
The couple even went so far as to get engaged, even though they had never met in person.
She shared her anger with her cousin, Simran Bhogal.
Bhogal verified everything she knew about Assi and Jandus relationship.
The next day,Bhogal came clean to Assi about pretending to be Jandu.
In 2020, Assi took Bhogal to court for misuse of her private information and data.
She also issued a personal apology letter to Assi.
According toToday, British police have since reopened Assis case.
So, the information the private investigator gathered was correct it just didnt account for catfishing.
Ironically, Sanj was also the victim of a catfishing scheme.
Assi chalked up his poor memory to alcohol and a noisy nightclub atmosphere (viaLiverpool Echo).
Interestingly, the real Bobby Jandu was interviewed in theSweet Bobbydocumentary, while Assi declined to appear.
Jandu continues to live out his life with his family in Brighton.
In 2021, she left her high-powered position as a vice president at Barclays Bank.
Bhogal also declined to participate in the documentary.
Assi has said that shes not interested in retribution, but in her cousin taking responsibility for her actions.
She has also urged people not to track down Bhogal or her family, saying (viaHello!
Whatever that persons done, their parents didnt do it, and they have to suffer.
Were all suffering as a family and a community.
By people trying to do that online, youre no better than what she did.
Lets put the pressure on the right people to do the right thing… Kirat Assi no longer works as a radio host, and is now running a marketing company.
