During the operation, the accused was found in possession of a well-organized ecosystem used for committing cyber frauds, which included, telecommunication setup, Pre-drafted scam scripts, Forged identity badges, and ID cards purporting to be of Canadian Jaw enforcement authorities.
Further, Virtual Digital Assets worth approximately USD 45,000 were seized from the possession of the accused. He was also found to be leading a lavish lifestyle, as evidenced by the recovery of luxury vehicles, high-end accessories, frequent foreign visits and substantial unaccounted wealth.

The accused has been produced before the CBI Court and taken into 4 days remand for interrogation.
The CBI remains steadfast in its commitment to combating cyber-enabled financial crimes and continues to work in coordination with international law enforcement agencies to dismantle such criminal infrastructures.
Investigation is continuing.
