SC lauds Tamil Nadu’s use of preventive detention to combat cybercrime
The Supreme Court has commended Tamil Nadu’s legislative and administrative resolve in tackling cybercrime through preventive detention, noting that traditional criminal laws are inadequate in addressing the rising menace of online financial fraud.
“It is a good trend coming from the state to use preventive detention laws against cyber offenders. It is a very welcome approach,” a bench of justices Sandeep Mehta and Joymalya Bagchi said on Monday.
