Delhi Police detained 89 people during a month-long operation targeting cybercrime networks across multiple states, with frauds totaling over ₹70 crore uncovered.
The West district Cyber Police unit carried out coordinated raids in April, resulting in 35 arrests and 54 people held under preventive custody. Officers recovered hundreds of SIM cards, ATM cards, smartphones, and banking documents linked to mule accounts and money laundering.
Deputy Commissioner of Police Darade Sharad Bhaskar said dedicated teams used technical surveillance and financial analysis to expose organised networks. One operation in Karampura on April 12 led to the arrest of six suspects who attempted to flee from a fourth-floor building.
Separate cases involved fake dating app schemes and digital arrest scams. Investigators traced funds to locations in Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, Jharkhand, and international IP addresses in Africa. Searches continue for other suspects involved in the schemes.
