Gujarat Police’s Cyber Centre of Excellence busted a ₹226 crore international crypto-terror network linking Ahmedabad to Dubai. The tech-driven operation traced a dark web drug trail from Mohsin Mulani to kingpin Zubair Popatia, revealing financial links to Hamas and global syndicates.
During the searches, the CBI officials recovered Rs 1.88 Crore, 34 electronic devices, including mobile phones, laptops, pen drives, hard disks, and incriminating documents pertaining to the crime.
It was discovered that some individuals in remote villages such as Manoharthana and Dangipura were selling their bank accounts and identity documents to other people for small amounts of money.
Nigerian accomplices were recruited by the foreign kingpins to prospect for victims online through phishing, targeting mostly Americans, Canadians, Mexicans and several others from European countries.
