Qamar has been charged with creating an event page for dance parties, where attendees could swap their wives once inside.
The event, which was organised on November 3, had rooms booked for those in attendance. The cover charge for the dance party was kept at Rs25,000.
In reality, there was no such party and the culprit took the money from the couples and then proceeded to delete the page.
During investigation, it was revealed that the accused had planned four other fake dance parties in the past as well.
SP Aziz said that a police informant acted as one of Qamar's clients and paid him Rs25,000 for a ticket.
When the informant called up the accused to ask for the details of the dance party, he told him to never call him again and that there is no such party.
Qamar also confessed to having sold two party tickets for Rs25,000 each. Aziz said that they had recovered the amount during the raid of his house.
