The Free Press Journal - Bhopal|December 20, 2024
DIGITAL FRAUD | Only 1.36% arrest rate in over 1,900 cases
Ankit Shukla

Earlier known as one of the major education hubs in India, Pune has lately become a hot-spot for cyber fraudsters. The city sees a rise in online fraud cases, and Punekars lost more than Rs200 crore in 2024 alone.

Moreover, there has been a noticeable shortfall in the arrest rate in cyber fraud cases—a meagre 1.36% in 1,398 cases, data shows.

A total of 1,398 cyber fraud cases have been registered in 2024, compared to 292 such cases registered in 2023. More than 1,500 complaints are still pending—on the waiting list—or have yet to be registered.
