Enforcement Directorate Arrests Two in Rs 30,000 Crore Pan-India Cyber Fraud Case
The Enforcement Directorate arrested two men, Fahim Moin Hussain Sayed and Naim Mueen Sayyed, in Mumbai as part of a money laundering probe into a pan-India cyber fraud and digital arrest racket involving transactions worth Rs 30,000 crore. The investigation began after a Goa woman was duped into transferring Rs 2.60 crore to 'Secret Supervision Accounts.' The agency suspects bank transactions of Rs 27,000 crore and cash dealings of Rs 3,000 crore linked to about 300 victim complaints and 150-160 FIRs across 20 states. Searches in Goa and Mumbai seized Rs 3.25 crore in cash, and the accused are to be produced before a special court in Panaji for custodial interrogation.
