CBI raids 12 locations, arrests four kingpins in digital arrest case; victim extorted 42 times over three months

NEW DELHI: The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Tuesday said it has arrested four kingpins in a major digital arrest case, where a victim was extorted 42 times over three months to the tune of Rs 7.67 crore by cyber-criminals posing as law enforcement officers. The case, originally registered at the Cyber Police Station in Jhunjhunu, Rajasthan, was taken over by the CBI at the request of the Rajasthan government. Officials said the victim was digitally detained by cyber fraudsters impersonating personnel from various enforcement agencies. The arrests, two each from Mumbai and Moradabad, were made as part of the CBIs ongoing Operation Chakra-V. Extensive follow-up search operations were carried out at 12 locations across the country, including Moradabad and Sambhal in Uttar Pradesh, Mumbai in Maharashtra, Jaipur in Rajasthan and Krishnanagar in West Bengal. Upon taking over the case, the CBI sleuths conducted an in-depth investigation involving extensive data analysis and profiling. The agency employed advanced investigative techniques to identify the perpetrators, a senior official said. Based on the leads generated during the investigation, the CBI conducted extensive searches recently, across twelve locations in Moradabad and Sambhal in UP, Mumbai in Maharashtra, Jaipur in Rajasthan and Krishnanagar in West Bengal, leading to the arrest of four accused involved in this highly organised crime syndicate, During the searches, the CBI recovered substantive evidence including bank account details, debit cards, cheque books, deposit slips and digital devices. The arrested accused were produced before a competent court and have been remanded to five days of CBI custody. As the investigation continues, the CBI reiterated its resolve to combat the rising threat of cybercrime and digital arrests. The CBI has been adopting a multi-pronged approach in investigating Digital Arrest cases, with a special emphasis on dismantling the infrastructure behind such offences. In recent months, the CBI has registered multiple cases of Digital Arrests, the official said.

INTERVIEW | ECI must clear air on surge in electors: Former EC Ashok Lavasa

Former Election Commissioner (EC) Ashok Lavasa speaks to Preetha Nair about the current controversy surrounding the duplication of Electoral Photo Identity Card ( EPIC) and says the only document available to weed it out is the unique identification number. Excerpts from the interview: Whats view on the row over duplicate Election Photo Identity cards? We have to look at it from two different points of view. The complaint that has been filed concerns people having the same EPIC number, that is, more than one person having the same EPIC number. The Election Commission has also acknowledged that the problem exists and is trying to resolve it. It is a welcome sign, and the issue should not be politicised. The other issue is de-duplication, which the EC has been attempting for a long time. One problem is one person having one EPIC number registering himself in more than one place, and the other is two people having the same EPIC number. We need to believe what the CEC has said that they will try to ensure that every voter has a unique Epic number. ECI said its a legacy issue. How can it be addressed? The ECI is right. Earlier, the electoral registration system was with the state chief electoral officers and district electoral officers. Now, the electoral roll database of states and UTs has been shifted to the integrated ERONET platform. ERONET requires every state to have a different series. However, regarding the de-duplication issue, the EC has to devise a mechanism to identify which elector is registering at more than one place. The ECI is set to link the voter ID card with Aadhaar. This is at variance with its earlier position that linkage could be optional. The only document available to weed out the duplication of voter cards is the unique identification number (UID). So, if you link Aadhaar with the electoral roll that is the only possible way to assign any uniqueness to the voter list or the EPIC unless some other viable technical methodology is found. Many have raised concerns about privacy infringement, voter profiling, etc. The Aadhaar Act does not make having an Aadhaar mandatory. The EC has held, and in my view, the right to vote is not dependent on having an Aadhaar. That should be separated. As far as the Aadhaar is concerned, it can be used for administrative purposes to de-duplicate. That doesnt mean you can deny somebody the right to be included in the electoral list if they are eligible. Shouldnt it be optional? If you make it optional, it cannot be used as a screening mechanism. The debate should be on how to de-duplicate. As far as the present system is concerned, this is the only way because Aadhaar has biometrics. We need to ask ourselves a question: What harm can be caused to a voter if it is identified that she is the unique person registered on the electoral roll? The privacy of her Aadhaar can still be protected as provided for in the law. Opposition parties flagged concerns on the alleged surge in electors during the Assembly polls in Maharashtra and Delhi. How will one explain the surge? Identifying the voters uniqueness is an answer to that problem because one person is not supposed to have more than one Aadhaar. Regarding the surge in the number of electors, the EC must explain why the number of electors registered increased abnormally. That is one part of the story. The question is how to de-duplicate them if these people were already enrolled in another place and were also enrolled here. The EC is already in consultation with political parties and technical departments. So they have to come up with a solution because there are already 98 crore registered voters. We dont know how many people could be registered in more than one place; the same person registered in more than one place. In my view, Aadhaar is the only document that can be used for de-duplication. The Opposition has been alleging of manipulation of EVMs. Are they susceptible to it? These are two different questions - whether EVMs have been manipulated and if they can be manipulated. Since these matters are in court, the EC will come up with its explanation and let the courts decide. There have been over 40 cases in the courts on this. The court has given neither an opinion nor judgment against the EVMs or suggestions that EVMs are manipulated. On the question of whether the EVMs can be manipulated in the future, I feel that the EC, along with the stakeholders, must continuously review the systems to plug any loopholes. The Opposition wants 100% verification of VVPAT slips. Let the EC talk to the stakeholders, and if they think this will create confidence, then they can go for 100% counting of slips in one or two random assembly constituencies. The courts have increased VVPAT verification to five random EVMs in each Assembly segment, and no discrepancy has been found so far. The electoral process is about building confidence. How can the trust deficit between the EC and the Opposition be bridged? Its about engaging with the stakeholders, taking their concerns seriously, and respond. Transparency will create more confidence. CEC and ECs appointment under the new law is being contested by the Opposition A more broad-based selection panel will create greater confidence. Your view on One Nation, One Election It is essential to consider whether the administrative gains or the management efficiency through simultaneous elections is beneficial. I dont see how an election in Kerala or Nagaland affects any other state. The provisions in the draft bill say that in the event of a government falling in the middle of its tenure, there will be a new election, but it will be for a curtailed period. If they are still not ruling out the possibility of elections taking place, its of no advantage.

Denied chance to speak, Maharashtra Dy CMs Shinde, Pawar left red-faced at Ambedkar Jayanti event

MUMBAI: Maharashtra Deputy Chief Ministers Eknath Shinde and Ajit Pawar found themselves in an embarrassing situation on Monday when they were not allowed to deliver their speeches during the celebration of Dr BR Ambedkars birth anniversary. According to the invitation issued by the state government, Governor CP Radhakrishnan, Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, and Deputy Chief Ministers Shinde and Pawar were all scheduled to speak at Chaitya Bhumi on the occasion. While CM Fadnavis and the Governor successfully delivered their addresses, Shinde and Pawar were not given the opportunity to speak due to time constraints. After the programme, both deputy chief ministers immediately left the venue visibly upset without interacting with the waiting media. However, later in response to on not being allowed to speak at the Chaityabhoomi event, Shinde clarified that he was not upset about being unable to deliver his speech. He emphasised that for him, visiting Chaityabhoomi on ambedkars birth anniversary was the priority. What can be more important than taking Babasahebs darshan at Chaityabhoomi? Taking Babasahebs darshan was important than that speech, Shinde said. We cannot forget the immense contributions of Dr ambedkar. His constitution has provided everyone with equal rights, allowing even the poorest individuals to live with dignity. On this significant day, if we can embody just one of his principles, it would be a fitting tribute to his legacy. We are not petty individuals who would get upset over small matters; we must focus on a larger goal, he added. This was not the first instance for Pawar. During Union Minister Amit Shahs visit to Raigad Fort in Maharashtra, he also missed the opportunity to deliver his speech because of time limitations. On sunday, Shinde had dismissed buzz of any rift within the Mahayuti and had said if there is any issue then it will be sorted out through discussions. Meanwhile, Pawar explained that he made a conscious decision to skip his speech since it was difficult to fit it into the allotted time while other leaders proceeded with theirs.

CHENNAI: Higher Education Minister Govi Chezhiaan on Monday said Governor RN Ravi was shedding crocodile tears over the plight of Dalits in the state and blamed him for remaining silent on the atrocities happening against Dalits in BJP ruled states. Citing data released by the centre, the minister said the six BJP-ruled states of Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Bihar, Odisha, and Maharashtra accounted for 81% of cases filed for atrocities against Dalits while Tamil Nadu accounted for 3%. The minister was responding to the governors speech at the BR Ambedkars birth anniversary event held at Raj Bhavan on Monday.
