<h1>Retired bank manager's family loses Rs 67 lakh in cyber 'digital arrest' scam after threats, coercion, fraud</h1> A retired bank manager's family in Bhopal was defrauded of about Rs 67 lakh in a cybercrime involving impersonation of police and 'digital arrest.' Fraudsters allegedly claimed the manager was implicated in terrorism and financial embezzlement, threatened harm if the matter was disclosed, and demanded Aadhaar, bank, and fixed deposit details. Under coercion, the family liquidated fixed deposits of over Rs 68 lakh and transferred Rs 67.5 lakh to accounts specified by the scammers, who promised a refund. The fraud was discovered when more money was demanded. A complaint was lodged with cybercrime authorities; about Rs 5.17 lakh was frozen, while the rest had been withdrawn.
