    Assam: Nine cyber criminals arrested in Guwahati
    Following the arrests, a cache of evidence comprising laptops, cell phones, and various documents considered offensive was taken by the Hatigaon police. 


    Digital Desk: Nine people were arrested by Hatigaon police on Thursday in connection with several cyber crimes, marking a significant advancement in the fight against cybercrime. 

    All of the suspects were located at the URBANICA HOMESTAY on Chandra Choudhury Road, and the arrests happened in the Bhetapara area. 

    Under names connected to West Bengali cybercriminals, the suspects made reservations for three rooms at the designated guesthouse starting on April 10. Out of the inmates, it was determined that Rupam Goswami, Deepak Singh, Feroz Khan, and Shloka Kumar were from West Bengal, while the names of the remaining five are still unknown.

    According to investigations, this group controlled a cybercrime network that mostly targeted victims in Assam.

    Following the arrests, a cache of evidence comprising laptops, cell phones, and various documents considered offensive was taken by the Hatigaon police. 

    The thieves used current bank accounts that belonged to gullible people to obtain access to money, which they would then transfer into other accounts they controlled and take out whenever they pleased. 

    The offenders' current accounts gained significant amounts of money as a consequence of their evil plan.

    The Pan Bazar Cyber Police Station has officially opened a cybercrime case, highlighting the seriousness of the offenses and the coordinated efforts of the local police to suppress such illegal activity. 

    The crackdown is evidence of the Hatigaon police's diligence and effectiveness in combating cybercrime and preserving the rule of law in the area. 

    To eliminate any remaining components of the criminal network and make sure the victims who were harmed by their activities receive justice, more investigations are being conducted.
