Punjab Police Launches Crackdown on Bitcoin-Related Crimes
Chandigarh, Punjab: The Punjab Police has launched a major crackdown on Bitcoin-related crimes in the state, arresting 18 individuals and seizing assets worth over INR 10 crore.
According to the police, the arrests were made following a series of raids conducted across the state. The accused were allegedly involved in fraudulent Bitcoin trading schemes and money laundering activities.
Investigators believe that the criminals were using Bitcoin to conceal their illicit earnings and evade detection by law enforcement agencies. The seized assets include cryptocurrency wallets, laptops, and luxury cars.
The Punjab Police has also issued a public warning against investing in unregulated Bitcoin exchanges and trading platforms. They urged citizens to be cautious of fraudulent investment schemes promising high returns.
“We are committed to cracking down on Bitcoin-related crimes and protecting the public from financial fraud,” said Punjab Police Chief Dinkar Gupta. “We will continue to investigate and arrest individuals involved in these illegal activities.”
The arrests come amid growing concerns about the use of Bitcoin in criminal activities. The decentralized nature of cryptocurrency makes it difficult for law enforcement agencies to track and trace illegal transactions.
However, the Punjab Police’s crackdown demonstrates that law enforcement is committed to combating Bitcoin-related crimes and protecting the public interest.
