Maharashtra Man Arrested for Cyber Fraud in Telangana Involving Rs 95 LakhPreviousNext

A 25-year-old man from Maharashtra, Chaitanya Pramod Kute, was arrested for allegedly impersonating bank officials to commit cyber fraud across Telangana, Maharashtra, and Goa. Police linked him to nearly 150 cases involving around Rs 95 lakh stolen by obtaining victims' credit card details and OTPs. The investigation began after a complaint from an Adilabad resident who lost Rs 73,279. Authorities seized phones, SIM cards, and other items during the arrest and recognized the police team's efforts with cash rewards.
