Jaipur, Sep 9
Rajasthan Police in Jaisalmer have achieved a major breakthrough by busting a notorious interstate gang involved in ATM card fraud.
SP Abhishek Shivhare informed that the case originated on August 17, 2024, when one Magsingh lodged a report at the Pokaran police station.
After tracking the culprits across states, police arrested three accused from Uttar Pradesh; those arrested include Ajay Saini, Monty and Parvesh, all residents of Saharanpur.
They deliberately tampered with the ATMs to create transaction failures. When unsuspecting customers struggled, they offered help and slyly exchanged the ATM card.
Using the original card and the observed PIN, they later withdrew money from the victims’ accounts. The accused have been remanded in police custody for further interrogation, and officials expect more cases of fraud to surface as the investigation deepens.
