A Beijing man who cheated a woman of 420,000 yuan (US$51,000) told police that he did so for the sake of love, Beijing News reports.

Wang Jun, 38, a native of Shijiazhuang in Hebei Province, met Chen at a matrimonial agency in Beijing and began dating. One year ago, he borrowed more than 420,000 yuan under various pretexts before disappearing one day.

He was caught on Valentine's Day when he tried to meet Chen, who had reported him to police.

"I wanted to use the money to earn more to help her live a happy life because I love her," Wang said.

He has been detained by local police.
