The Supreme Court of India on Monday, 9 February, ordered the Reserve Bank of India, the Department of Telecom (DoT) and other authorities to hold a joint meeting to create a compensation framework for digital arrest fraud victims, reported PTI.
The Supreme Court bench comprising Chief Justice of India Surya Kant, Justice Joymalya Bagchi, and Justice NV Anjaria ordered the regulators to impose a standard operating procedure (SOP), calling the siphoning of over ₹54,000 crore by digital fraudsters an absolute “robbery or dacoity”.
