98 investors duped of ₹1.85 cr in Bitcoin scam

The Dahisar police have registered an FIR against four persons for allegedly cheating 98 people of Rs1.85 crore by trapping them with the lure of handsome returns on Bitcoin investment. The accused have been identified as Amit Bhosale, Amol Doke, Laxman Chauhan and Sujit Jadhav, who are on the run.

Initial probe revealed that they operated a company 'SJAB Digital Solution LLP' with its office in Dahisar West. The police suspect that the quartet may have defrauded more people. The complainant in the case is Bhimsingh Bhool, 52, a resident of Bhayandar West, who previously worked in a private company, but has been unemployed for the past six months.
