Nashik cops facilitated Igatpuri call centre racket: CBI probe
The Free Press Journal
|March 18, 2026
The CBI probe into the Igatpuri fake call centre has revealed that the operation was allegedly established and operationalised under an “umbrella of assistance” from certain Nashik police officials.
Sources familiar with the investigation stated that the officers oversaw all aspects of the setup, including the selection of the Rainforest Resort in Igatpuri, installation of high-speed fibre-optic connectivity and other critical infrastructure, effectively creating a protected operational node for fraudulent activities.
The investigation indicates that the logistical and technical arrangements were executed by the arrested call centre operative, Vishal Yadav, with support from a local crime branch official.
