Haryana cops nab four in Rs 11.97 lakh cyberfraud case

PATNA: A Haryana police team on Sunday arrested four persons from Nawada and Nalanda districts in a cyberfraud case of Rs11.97 lakh committed in Rohtak.

Those arrested were identified as Vikash Prasad, 32, and his brother Niwas Kumar, 24, from village Katardih under Katrisarai police station area in Nalanda and Gaurav Kumar and Saurav Kumar from Apsarh under Warisaliganj police station area in Nawada district.

Haryana police sub-inspector Kapil Nandlal, who was part of the raiding team, said one Manjeet Kumar from Patna was arrested in the same case on July 8. “They had duped a person in Rohtak after alluring him with messages of winning a lottery. Further investigations are going on in the case after which more arrests would be made. We are gathering the details of arrested persons to know where all money had been transferred,” he said.

Nandlal said the four arrested cyberfrauds were being taken to Rohtak.

Katrisarai police station SHO Amresh Kumar Singh said a laptop, two cellphones and debit cards were recovered by the Haryana police team from their residence. He said the arrests were made in a case registered there with the cybercrime police station in Rohtak. “The accused have been taken on transit remand,” he said.
