Mumbai: Minor hacks into shop’s system, JJB makes him sign bond of good behaviour

In one of the swiftest disposals in cases of cybercrime, a 17-year-old boy who had hacked into the system of a coffee shop on September 1, and transferred money to his gift card, was found guilty by a Juvenile Justice Board (JJB) on Thursday.

After a day-long hearing, the JJB asked the teenager to sign a bond of good behaviour for Rs 15,000 for a year and undergo counselling at an NGO for two years.

An officer from Bandra Kurla Complex cyber police station said that a coffee shop owner had approached them, stating that someone had hacked into their system on September 1. In his complaint, the owner said that the hacker had transferred money from the gift card of the shop to his own gift card.
