Chandigarh, Jan. 31 -- The UT cyber police have arrested a second accused in a Rs.85 lakh "digital arrest" case in which a Chandigarh resident was duped by callers posing as government and bank officials. The accused has been identified as Sibgathulla Baig alias Syed, 28, a resident of the Neelasandra area in Bengaluru, Karnataka. He was arrested during a raid conducted with the assistance of local police in Bengaluru. According to police, the complainant had received multiple calls from unknown persons who claimed to be officials of the Telecom Authority of India, ICICI Bank and the vigilance department. The callers threatened him with a fake "digital arrest" in a fabricated money-laundering case and persuaded him to pay up to avoid legal action. Fearing arrest and believing the callers to be genuine officials, the complainant transferred a total of Rs.85 lakh on several occasions into different bank accounts as instructed. During investigation, an analysis of the money trail revealed that a portion of the defrauded amount was credited to an Axis Bank account in the name of SK Collection, owned by Baig. The mobile number linked to the account was also found registered in his name. During interrogation, the accused disclosed that he had shared his bank account details with an unknown person via the Telegram app, who promised him a 50% commission on transactions. He admitted receiving Rs.30,000 as commission, which he withdrew and spent. He claimed he realised the fraudulent nature of the transactions only after being informed by bank officials. Police recovered a Samsung mobile phone with a SIM card and a cheque book of the Axis Bank account from the accused. Further interrogation is underway to trace the complete modus operandi of the gang and identify other co-accused involved in the organised cyber fraud....
