Mumbai Police have arrested two Rajasthans in connection with a case where Rs 19,000 was fraudulently transferred from a business account of a merchant in South Mumbai. The police found that the two defendants were using a Virtual Private Network (VPN) device to hide their location.
An officer said that a manager of a South Mumbai-based pharmaceutical company called the police in the last week of June after discovering that an amount of Rs 19 lakh had been illegally transferred from his business account. The complainant said that although no transfer was made, the net banking facilities were illegally used to make the transfer.
The electronic police station in the southern region took over the investigation and started the investigation. During the investigation, it was found that the transfer was made by accessing the mobile internet of a person residing in Rajasthan.
Then a police team left for Jaipur and traced the person, who was identified as Satyender Rajawat (44) and his partner Mukesh Chaudhary (35), both e-commerce businessmen. The police found that the accused was using a VPN from another service provider to hide the location where the transfer took place.
The police issued a notice to the accused asking them to appear before them in Mumbai. When the duo appeared before the Internet Police in the Southern District, the police decided, after questioning them, to place them under arrest for questioning in custody. The two accused appeared before a recess court and were taken back into police custody.
While seeking detention, police said they have not yet recovered the money they transferred, as well as identifying the other suspects involved in the scam.
