Mandsaur police have detained six suspects in a cross‑state cyber fraud operation that allegedly caused losses of around ₹11 crore.
Mandsaur police announced the arrest of six individuals suspected of operating an interstate cyber fraud network that is believed to have siphoned off approximately ₹11 crore from victims across multiple states. The arrests were made following a coordinated investigation that traced digital footprints and financial transactions linked to the scam.
The suspects were taken into custody at a police station in Mandsaur after authorities gathered sufficient evidence of their involvement in fraudulent online activities, including phishing, fake investment schemes, and unauthorized fund transfers.
Police officials said the case highlights the growing sophistication of cyber‑crimes that transcend state boundaries and emphasized that further inquiries will aim to identify additional accomplices and recover the misappropriated funds.
