According to the police, the operation was carried out after a series of cyber fraud cases were reported in Dwarka. Based on tip-off and digital footprint analysis, the team traced the accused in Rajasthan and Delhi.
“The team conducted multiple raids and apprehended the accused from different locations within a week,” he added.
Investigations revealed that Verma, a college student, was paid for providing bank accounts and SIM cards, while Surender was allegedly recruited by a cousin. Rajveer had opened a current account under his firm’s name at the behest of a friend, which was used for funneling fraud money.
Further investigation is underway to identify and arrest other members of the syndicate.
