Delhi cops arrest Odisha man for Rs 1cr cyber frauds

The Delhi police on Saturday arrested a man from his in-laws’ house at Naraharipur village under the Dhusuri police limits in Bhadrak district for allegedly committing cyber frauds amounting to Rs 1 crore.

The accused Rajendra Mallick is a resident of Bari in Jajpur district.

He had a travel agency, through which he used to make train and flight tickets of people using fake IDs. He also used to dupe people of thousands of rupees on the pretext of getting them a job at the Delhi airport by hacking the software.

A complaint was lodged against him on December 2 by a resident of Delhi, following which a team of Delhi police reached Bhadrak by tracing Mallick and arrested him. Further questioning is underway, police sources said.
