By
On-line fraudsters have targeted two bank accounts of owner of Ajit Bakery and transferred Rs 41.50 lakh from the accounts. SIM card of the owner linked to the bank accounts was swapped by the fraudsters from Pune location to commit the crime.
According to police, Avanti Abhiram Deshmukh (48), a resident of Plot No. 145, Farmland, Ramdaspeth, lodged a complaint with Dhantoli police about the fraud on Monday. Avanti and other partners of Ajit Bakery have two bank accounts at Saraswat Bank’s Wardha Road branch. 
The money was transferred to HDFC bank account of Jafar Khan; Andhra Bank account of Sameer Singh; Development Credit Bank (DCB) of DG Enterprizes; ICICI bank account in the name of Vandana Devi and another ICICI bank account in the name of India First Trading. These bank accounts are located in Gujarat, Delhi and Rajasthan, the officer said and added that the fraud took place between Saturday and Monday. 
The fraudsters hatched the conspiracy of targeting the bank accounts after getting basic banking details. They gathered bank’s name, account number and registered mobile number after penetrating trozen or malware in the server or hacking email. 
Soon after, the fraudsters forged Aadhaar card of Avanti Deshmukh and submitted at BSNL’s office at Pune and got a duplicate SIM card on Saturday. The mobile number of Avanti linked with the bank account was activated on the duplicate SIM card while Avanti’s SIM card was automatically deactivated. 
Within three days, the criminals transferred Rs 41.50 lakh from the two bank accounts. As Avanti’s SIM was not working, alert messages about transactions were not received on her mobile phone. 
The fraud came to fore on Monday when she checked balance in the bank accounts. She was shocked after seeing fraudulent transactions and reported the matter to Dhantoli police. 
Dhantoli Police have registered an offence under Sections 420, 468, 471 and 34 of the Indian Penal Code against the fraudsters.

Acting swiftly after receiving the complaint of fraudulent transactions, Cyber Complaint Cell (C3) of Nagpur Police swung into action and issued letters to the banks in which the money was transferred. The banks have freeze Rs 15 lakh and this money would be re credited to the victim’s bank accounts soon.

The world’s most powerful man was made to wait for 11 minutes in his car while an Indian cop took on American officials for their unwarranted interference in the US President’s security. KM Mallikarjuna Prasanna, Special Inspector General of Police of Nagpur Range, still continues to work with the same pride, wearing his patriotism on the sleeve. “Had they (Americans) deployed their personnel for area security, then the message would have been Indians are unable to protect VIPs in their nation,” recounted Prasanna on the episode that is one of the highlights of his distinguished career of a skillful investigator. The story of the IPS officer of 2000 batch is worth a film. In fact, a movie (Nagarjun-starrer ‘Officer’) has already been made by Ram Gopal Verma last year. His real life script als...
