Advocate for applicant and Ld. A.P.P.
2. It is alleged that the accused through the Whatsapp call
threatened informant of digital arrest and induced her to transfer total
amount of Rs.2,89,00,000/- to the different accounts. Accordingly,
informant transferred said amount to their various accounts. The
applicant realized the fraud. Hence, she has registered the F.I.R. at Cyber
Police Station (West Division). Immediately the amounts credited in the
beneficiary accounts from the account of applicant is frozen.
3. Accused are traced out and they have given no objection by
filing affidavit. The concerned police station has no objection to transfer
the freeze amount to the account of applicant. Ld. A.P.P. has submitted
to pass the appropriate order. It seems that Ld. A.P.P. has no objection.
Except applicant, no one has claimed the freeze amount. The details of
complaint report shows that the applicant has made a complaint as
above and said amount is put on hold. The applicant is in need of
money. The statement of account of applicant shows that the above
amount is debited from her account. If said amount is not released, it
will remain unused and the applicant will suffer irreparable loss. Said
amount can be released in favour of applicant on a condition to execute
the Indemnity Bond by her to deposit the said amount as and when
required by this court. Hence, I am of the view that the applicant is
entitled to get the above freeze amount. Accordingly, I proceed to pass
