Ahmedabad Murder Investigation Reveals Interstate Fake Currency RacketPreviousNext

Ahmedabad police uncovered an interstate counterfeit currency racket during the investigation of Imran Sindha's murder on May 27. Sindha, the alleged mastermind, was reportedly killed by associates involved in printing fake Rs 500 and Rs 100 notes. Authorities arrested six individuals, including a juvenile, from various states and seized counterfeit currency worth up to Rs 60 lakh, along with printing equipment. The operation was active since March 2026, with police continuing investigations into the case.
