In a major breakthrough, Cyber Police have arrested Sana Shahid Khan, a resident of Maya Nagar, Indora, for her involvement in a fake call centre fraud operating across India and Nepal. The investigation revealed that the scam targeted victims from various regions including Nepal and Bihar, promising them high returns on investments.
Authorities found that money swindled from victims was deposited into Sana’s bank account. Last month alone, the fraud amount reported was approximately Rs50 lakh, while the total amount passing through her account from multiple scams is pegged at Rs1.5 crore.
Police uncovered that Sana traveled to Nepal via Bihar, where she handed over the laundered money to the prime accused after taking her commission, before returning to Nagpur. Officials suspect that other gang members may have also traveled to Nepal to transfer funds.
Following her police custody, Sana has been sent to judicial custody. Meanwhile, Cyber Police teams are working in Bihar to trace the main masterminds behind this elaborate scam, with further arrests anticipated soon.
