Bilaspur. The High Court has once again reprimanded the police. The court has said that the message should go among the public that the police administration is working in a strong and impartial manner. The court has directed to take swift action in a crypto currency case, arrest the accused and provide justice to the victims. In the hearing, the High Court said that every rupee of poor and small people is valuable.
In Raipur and Mahasamund, three people had duped a female employee of an insurance company of Rs 30 lakh 25 thousand on the pretext of doubling the amount in six months if she invested money in a crypto currency network marketing project. On the complaint of a woman who was a victim of fraud, Telibandha police station registered a case of fraud against three accused from Mahasamund district. But no one was arrested. According to the victim woman, there are a total of 11 accused in the case, but the police is not investigating.
Promise was made to double the amount in six months
Kumari Lalita Sona (34), resident of Bharat Mata Chowk, Shantinagar, Raipur, has her own business. On September 1, 2022, Tej Kumar Puri, a resident of Saraipali, Mahasamund, called on his mobile number 9827262080 and assured himself of working in a project related to crypto currency and doubling the amount in six months if he invested money in it. After this he continued to encourage people to invest money. Meanwhile, Tej Kumar informed and invited his colleagues to organize a seminar regarding that project on 6 September 2022 at Triton Hotel located near VIP Chowk. Lalita attended the seminar, where along with Tej Kumar Puri, Pithora resident Sameer Kumar Mishra, Satyawati Dubey, Kishore Kumar, Premlala Pradhan, Baleshwar Pradhan, Chaitan Kumar Sahu, Ghasidas Manikpuri, Tejram Dewangan, Arkheet Das, Rakesh Gupta etc. were present.

30 lakhs were deposited by tricking
On October 18, Tej Kumar Puri, Sameer Kumar Mishra, Satyawati Dubey called him again to the same hotel and deposited Rs 4.50 lakh as RTGS into Tej Kumar Puri’s Indian Bank account through net banking.
