Police busted a major cross-border cybercrime racket operating from Sakinaka and arrested four men, including the mastermind.
The key accused, Mohammed Masood Abdul Waseem (25), allegedly supplied bank account credentials of Indians to Dubai-based cybercriminals.
Police recovered several mobile phones, cheque books, and SIM cards used to facilitate the illegal transfers of banking details.
The other arrested accused are:
Abdulla Lare Ahmed Shaikh (24),
Noor Alam Ashiq Ali Khan (42), and
Manish Kotesh Nandala (30).
Two individuals — Abdul Khaliq Abdul Qadir Khan and Arbaaz Fazlani — are currently on the run.
Their Dubai-based Indian-origin handlers, Mohsin and Zafar, are also wanted for their role in financial cybercrimes.
Acting on a tip-off, a police team raided Hotel Gateway Star in Sakinaka and detained Waseem.
Examination of his phone and social media chats revealed he was sending bank account details, cheque books, debit cards, and SIM cards to his Dubai counterparts.
