Delhi Police said on October 4 that two men had been arrested over an alleged ₹6-lakh fraud involving callers posing as law-enforcement officials. PTI reported arrests in Kathua and Bhilwara. The disclosure does not specify when each arrest occurred.
The Times of India separately quoted DCP (South) Anant Mittal describing an intimidating WhatsApp video call. It reported that Cyber South police registered an e-FIR involving extortion, cheating, impersonation and alleged use of forged material. These are investigative allegations, not findings of guilt.
According to PTI’s account, police traced the money to an account allegedly controlled by Mukesh Kumhar, with ₹5.5 lakh subsequently transferred to an account attributed to Ritish Kumar Mehra. Investigators reported another Kumhar-linked account with about ₹50 lakh in transactions and links to ten cybercrime complaints. Turnover does not establish that the entire amount was stolen, or that each complaint is proved.
The Times of India reported police examining an alleged Cambodia-linked communication trail and seizing phones, banking materials and stamps. This does not establish a foreign operator’s identity. Original banking records, the FIR and responses from the accused were unavailable in the reviewed material. The case remains under investigation.
