  "account": "Police apprehended a 29-year-old man from Haryana's Hisar district for allegedly handing over his bank account details to cybercriminals who defrauded a Gurugram resident of ₹1.08 crore via an investment scam, authorities announced on Tuesday. The suspect, named Kuldeep and a resident of Kharia village, was apprehended on Monday by a Gurugram Sector-56 cybercrime branch team, police stated. In accordance with police reports, Kuldeep had established a current account with a private bank, into which ₹3.74 lakh of the total amount pilfered from the victim in Gurugram was deposited to enable the transfer of funds. The victim reported the alleged theft to the Cybercrime police station (West) on November 8 last year, alleging that he had lost at least ₹1.08 crore after falling prey to stock market investment fraud. They informed that an FIR was promptly filed under the appropriate sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, and an investigation commenced, which revealed that Kuldeep's bank account received the stolen funds. A spokesperson for Gurugram police, Sandeep Turan, revealed that during questioning, the suspect admitted to providing his bank account information to one of his associates, who earned a commission for each significant deposit. According to Turan, the suspect either withdrew cash from the account and deposited it into another, or transferred the funds to another online bank account. Ongoing investigations are underway to identify additional individuals involved in the criminal network and track the money trail, police stated.",
