KOTTAYAM: A Kottayam-based doctor has been rescued in real time from a digital arrest by fraudsters who were posing as Mumbai police officers to defraud him, Kerala police said on Wednesday.

The cyber cell of Kerala police and officials of State Bank of India (SBI) on Tuesday worked together to identify the fraud being committed on the doctor and managed to recover most of the ₹5 lakh that was fraudulently taken from him by the culprits, Kottayam SP Shahul Hameed A said at a press briefing here.

Giving details of the incident, a cyber cell officer told a TV channel that SBI has a financial tracking system for monitoring suspicious transactions and they flagged a ₹5 lakh transaction made by the doctor on Tuesday to an account in north India.
