Five Arrested in Rs 42.92 Lakh Digital Arrest Fraud Case in GurugramPreviousNext

In Gurugram, police arrested three men—Suhail Akhtar, Anas Ansari, and Usman—from Roorkee, Uttarakhand, in connection with a Rs 42.92 lakh digital arrest fraud case. The victim was allegedly coerced by an individual posing as a CBI officer to transfer the amount via RTGS between May 7 and 11. Two other accused, Avdhesh from Jind and Manoj Kumar from Rewari, were arrested earlier. Investigations revealed some accused held accounts receiving the defrauded money, while others withdrew cash on commission. Further inquiry continues.
