CBI Arrests Two in Gujarat Digital Arrest Cyber Fraud Case Worth Rs 11.42 CrorePreviousNext

The CBI arrested two individuals, Himanshu Prasad and Unis Biswas, in connection with an 11.42 crore rupees 'digital arrest' cyber fraud case in Gujarat. Coordinated searches at 22 locations across 10 states uncovered evidence including banking documents and digital devices. The accused allegedly used company bank accounts and installed APK files to siphon funds, coercing a victim held under 'digital arrest' for three months to transfer money. Investigations continue to identify other network members as part of a nationwide crackdown under Operation Chakra-VI.
