Women stripped, assaulted for not repaying loan, K’taka police lodge complaint after 2 days

In a shocking incident, two sisters were stripped and assaulted at their residence in the limits of Sarjapur police station on the outskirts of Bengaluru. More shockingly, it is alleged that the police refused to lodge a complaint for two days. It was only after public outrage that the complaint was lodged.
The police on Wednesday arrested accused persons Ramakrishna Reddy and Sunil Kumar for the assault.
The incident took place in Doddabommasandra in Anekal taluk. The complaint was lodged against Ramakrishna Reddy and Sunil Kumar and Indramma. The third accused is yet to be arrested.
According to the complaint, one of the victims had taken a loan of Rs 1 lakh at an exorbitant 30 per cent interest for the education of her children from Ramakrishna Reddy, a resident of Neriga village near Doddabommasandra.
However, she was asked to repay the entire loan amount at once. The villagers had brokered an agreement that once they sell their land, the victim would repay the loan amount.
Despite this, the accused barged into their residence and assaulted and stripped the victims. They had approached Sarjapur police station in connection with the incident. However, it is alleged that Inspector Raghavendra Imbrapur refused to lodge the complaint.
The inspector had asked the victims to negotiate with the accused for a settlement. Meanwhile, the assault videos went viral on social media creating public outrage against the police and the accused persons.
The cops finally called the victims to the police station and lodged a complaint on Tuesday night.

CBI dismantles transnational cybercrime network targeting US nationals, three arrested

New Delhi, Aug 25: The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), under its ongoing Operation Chakra-IV, has dismantled a sophisticated cybercrime network that defrauded US nationals of nearly $40 million and arrested three key accused, an agency statement said.
The action was carried out in close coordination with the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).
The arrested have been identified as Jigar Ahmed, Yash Khurana, and Inder Jeet Singh Bali.
According to the CBI, between 2023 and 2025, the accused gained unauthorised remote access to victims’ systems and bank accounts by posing as tech support providers.
They convinced US-based victims that their accounts were compromised and manipulated them into transferring money to cryptocurrency wallets controlled by the gang, the statement said.
The CBI registered the case on August 18 and launched extensive searches across Amritsar and Delhi. A major breakthrough came when investigators raided an illegal call centre — Digikaps The Future of Digital — being run at Global Tower, opposite Khalsa College for Women, Amritsar. At the site, 34 people were caught red-handed while engaged in cyber fraud activities.
The searches led to the seizure of 85 hard disks, 16 laptops, 44 mobile phones, incriminating digital evidence, and Rs 54 lakh in cash. Documents and additional electronic devices linked to the fraud were also recovered.
CBI investigations revealed that the accused had been funnelling proceeds of crime through cryptocurrency transactions.
Further operations are underway to trace the money trail and identify other members of the transnational cyber-enabled financial crime network, the agency said.
The probe is also pursuing international leads in coordination with Interpol and other foreign law enforcement agencies, the statement added.
The CBI noted that Operation Chakra-IV has significantly disrupted and dismantled this organised cybercrime syndicate.
Investigation into the broader network and on international leads is ongoing.
