NAVI MUMBAI
More than three weeks after the Navi Mumbai Crime Branch busted a nationwide cyber fraud racket operating through the banned online gaming app ‘Reddy Anna, police have revealed details of the operation that led to the arrest of 12 men linked to 393 cases amounting to Rs84 crore.
The syndicate was allegedly running large-scale online scams involving fake jobs, stock market frauds, and illegal gaming. Although the arrests and seizure took place last month, the details were made public on Thursday during a press conference.
The investigation began after the arrest of Imran Usmani Minhaj Shaikh, 22, a resident of Nerul Sector-18, who had opened 60 to 70 fake bank accounts used by cyber fraudsters to launder money through the ‘Reddy Anna’ gaming platform. Shaikh was detained on October 14 near CBD Belapur railway station after he was seen behaving suspiciously.
