Karnataka Police Mandate Immediate Transfer of Cybercrime Cases to Specialized Units
Karnataka police have issued directives to ensure cybercrime complaints registered at local police stations are immediately transferred to specialised cybercrime units for prompt investigation. This aims to address delays that hinder timely preservation of digital evidence and freezing of fraudulent transactions. Local stations will continue registering FIRs, but dedicated cybercrime stations will handle investigations, with oversight from district and city police officials to improve case management and coordination with banks, telecom providers, and other agencies.
