In a significant breakthrough, Cyber Police have traced a connection between cyber fraud activities and money transfers routed through Nepal. Sana Shahid Khan, a resident of Maya Nagar, Indora, was arrested for her role in operating a fake call centre scam. The probe uncovered that the fraudsters targeted victims across India—including regions like Nepal and Bihar—by enticing them with promises of high investment returns.
Victims were reached through call centres, and the money swindled from them was deposited into Sana’s bank account. Last month alone, a fraud worth Rs 50 lakh was reported. During the investigation, police discovered that a total of Rs 1.5 crore from multiple scams had passed through Sana’s account. It is alleged that she traveled to Nepal via Bihar, handed over the funds to the prime accused after taking her commission, and then returned to Nagpur.
Police said this is not the only case, and other gang members may have also gone to Nepal to deliver money. After her police custody ended, Sana was sent to jail. Now, a Cyber Police team is working in Bihar to find the main people behind this scam. More arrests are expected soon.
