In a meticulously planned operation, the Delhi Police have successfully dismantled multiple inter-state cyber fraud syndicates. Over the span of a month, authorities arrested 55 individuals and managed to recover a staggering Rs 4.84 crore of the stolen money while also freezing Rs 1.55 crore in assets.
The police's breakthrough was possible due to detailed financial trail analysis and field operations spanning various states, which provided significant insights into the operations of these cybercriminals. According to Deputy Commissioner of Police (West) Darade Sharad Bhaskar, partial relief amounting to Rs 39 lakh was offered to victims through court orders.
A range of cyber fraud cases, including fake investment and trading schemes, were unraveled.
