Bengaluru: In a swift operation, the Bengaluru West Division Cybercrime Police successfully recovered Rs14 lakh that had been fraudulently taken from Dr. Preethi Sudhakar, wife of Chikkaballapur MP Dr. K. Sudhakar, after she was threatened with arrest by online fraudsters posing as police officers. Fraudsters, pretending to be officers from the Mumbai Cybercrime Police, contacted Dr. Preethi Sudhakar around 9:30 a.m. Trusting the fake officials, Dr. Preethi transferred the amount through RTGS. Realizing she had been cheated, she promptly lodged a complaint at the Cybercrime Police Station in Bengaluru West Division. Following court orders obtained on September 3, police facilitated the reversal of the transaction, crediting the entire Rs 14 lakh back into Dr. Preethi’s account.
