JAMMU: Police Station CICE Jammu received an online complaint from retired Air force officer on 06.02.2026 regarding a “Digital Arrest” cyber fraud involving an amount of Rs 52,90,000/- who remained under digital arrest for 9 days. Acting promptly, the police initiated investigation, traced beneficiary bank accounts and followed the money trail without delay.
Within three hours of receipt of the complaint, an amount of Rs 11,90,000/- was traced to a suspected *Yes Bank account* at Jodhpur and was immediately placed on hold by invoking the newly issued Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) by Police officer. Additionally a lien of Rs 4,90,000/- was marked in subsequent layers of linked bank accounts.
Further coordinated efforts with the concerned banks led to the tracing of an additional Rs 28,00,000/- in a second layer of suspected accounts. With this, a total amount of Rs 39,90,482/- out of the defrauded sum has been successfully saved and secured. The recovered amount shall be remitted back to the complainant’s account shortly through Hon’ble Court, providing significant relief to the victim and his family.
This case marks the first operational use of the newly issued SOP by PS CICE Jammu in a live probe demonstrating its effectiveness in financial investigation. The prompt action was taken by the DySP Albeena Malik-JKPS, SHO PS CICE Jammu, along with his team comprising Inspector Pradeep Singh and HC Rakesh Choudhary, under the overall supervision of SSP CICE J&K.
