Pimpri-Chinchwad Police invoked the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act against six suspected members of a cybercrime syndicate. The group allegedly cheated a senior citizen of ₹86 lakh through a fake trading app, transferring fraud proceeds into cryptocurrency, including Tether. Investigators found the suspects were part of an organized crime syndicate operating across Maharashtra and Gujarat, with contact allegedly maintained with a key suspect based in Cambodia. Police secured a court order to return ₹28 lakh to the complainant.
