ED Arrests Advocate in Rs 28,000 Crore Pan-India Cyber Fraud Investigation
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) arrested advocate Rashesh Upadhyay, also known as Rashesh Shah, at Mumbai airport in connection with a Rs 28,000 crore pan-India cyber fraud and money laundering network. The investigation began after a Goa woman lost Rs 2.60 crore to digital arrest scams, where criminals impersonated officials to extort money. Upadhyay is accused of being a key figure who facilitated releasing frozen bank accounts by bribing officials. Seven arrests have been made so far in the case.
