The state police arrested 22-year-old Pramod Godara, a third-year law student, on Saturday for allegedly running a cyber fraud gang that supplied mule bank accounts to criminals. The gang reportedly played a crucial role in digital arrest scams reported from Maharashtra and Uttarakhand.
One of the FIRs against Godara was registered at Mumbai’s Cuffe Parade police station. Authorities revealed that Godara had been under surveillance for six months before his arrest.
He is accused of heading a network that opened dozens of mule bank accounts. These accounts were used to route crores of rupees obtained from various cyber scams, making him a key facilitator in the money laundering operations.
