Sehore police have apprehended five individuals allegedly connected to a cyber fraud syndicate with suspected Chinese ties, according to reports. The suspects, all from Indore, are accused of stealing proceeds from a cybercrime and converting them into the cryptocurrency USDT. The case emerged after Kanchan Tomar, a Sehore resident, lodged a complaint about unauthorized transactions from her account.
Police traced the money trail using the National Cybercrime Reporting Portal and identified the suspects through technical analysis. Five people were arrested, including Gopal Sen, Sumit Koshthi, Aryan Ambedkar, Ritesh Prajapat, and Anurag Patel. During interrogations, Ambedkar confessed to using cyber fraud money to purchase USDT, which was then transferred via Telegram to a Chinese national named Matty, who allegedly received a 10% commission.
Police are currently searching for Rajput and investigating if the fraud network targeted other victims.
