Supreme Court Denies Bail to Cyber Fraud Accused, Emphasizes Strict Action
The Supreme Court, led by Chief Justice Surya Kant, denied bail to a cyber fraud accused and rejected his request to surrender after Deepavali, emphasizing that cyber criminals have no place in society and should remain in jail. The Court noted that unlike murderers, cyber fraudsters are not eligible for rehabilitation. It also highlighted recent measures to combat cyber fraud, including Standard Operating Procedures and zero FIR mechanisms, which have contributed to a decline in complaints related to digital arrests.
