Posing as officials of Government agencies, cyber criminals duped a senior citizen by fabricating allegations of money laundering and criminal involvement, backed by forged documents carrying the names of prestigious government institutions.

Through intimidation, deception and relentless psychological pressure, they convinced the victim that he was under investigation and at risk of arrest, the victim was induced to transfer nearly ₹4.40 crore.

Acting swiftly on the complaint, the Cyber Crime Branch of Kolkata Police launched an intensive investigation. Through sustained follow-up, meticulous fund-trail analysis and relentless efforts by the investigating team, approximately ₹1 crore of the defrauded amount has been successfully recovered, providing significant relief to the victim. Efforts are continuing to trace the remaining funds.

Misleading videos and posts are being circulated on social media with false claims regarding the law and order situation in Kolkata/West Bengal.

Verification has confirmed that the visuals being shared are unrelated, and the claims are entirely baseless.
Kolkata Police is closely monitoring the spread of such misinformation, and legal action is being initiated against those responsible for circulating false content.

Citizens are urged not to share unverified information.

[Kolkata Police @KolkataPolice]

A misleading social media post is being circulated claiming that traffic was halted to facilitate the movement of the convoy of HCM. This claim is false and factually incorrect.

The traffic regulation seen in the circulated visuals was undertaken as part of a scheduled security and traffic arrangement in connection with the movement of the Secretary of State of the United States of America. In addition, traffic regulations are in place due to ongoing metro related work at Chingrighata.

Kolkata Police requests citizens not to believe or share unverified and misleading posts.
