Instant loan apps scam, the Chinese link

Hyderabad: A month after the Telangana Police began the crackdown on illegal instant loan apps following suicide by five persons, the investigation showed a deeper Chinese link to the scam.

After taking at least four Chinese nationals into custody for running the illegal apps, the cops are now probing the role of some other Chinese.

In the latest incident, Cyberabad police arrested three persons in connection with instant personal loan apps on January 22.
