<h1>Nationwide centralization of digital arrest cyberfraud probes under CBI with monitoring and transfer of FIRs</h1> The Supreme Court indicated willingness to centralize probes of 'digital arrest' cyberfraud by entrusting cases to the CBI given their scale and national spread, issuing notices to all states and Union territories and directing them to furnish details of FIRs without formal counter-affidavits. The court asked the CBI to present an investigative plan and state whether additional resources, including non-police cyber experts, are required, and said it will monitor CBI progress and issue directions as needed. The bench noted these schemes often operate from offshore 'scam compounds,' involve money-laundering networks and human exploitation, and permitted transfer of pending FIRs for consolidated investigation.
