CBI Registers FIRs in Digital Fraud Cases Targeting Elderly in Delhi and Kasaragod

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has registered FIRs in multiple cases of digital fraud targeting elderly individuals in India. A 76-year-old woman from Delhi's Munirka lost Rs 1.64 crore after cyber criminals impersonated others and used fake documents, leading to a Supreme Court-directed CBI takeover. Separately, a 72-year-old man in Kasaragod was defrauded of Rs 20.10 lakh through a similar 'digital arrest' scam involving intimidation and false claims of legal action. Investigations are ongoing.
