The Delhi Police have apprehended three individuals linked to a significant 'digital arrest' fraud scheme responsible for defrauding a Paschim Vihar resident of Rs 14.2 lakh, according to an officer on Wednesday.
The suspects, Md Kaif, Monish, and Sashindar Ram, allegedly orchestrated the operation by managing bank accounts used to layer and launder illicit cybercrime funds.
Following a victim's complaint about a threatening call from an impersonating officer, police traced the funds to suspect accounts, leading to the arrests. The investigation is ongoing to dismantle the larger fraud network.
