Cyber fraudsters are parasites, must be dealt with sternly, says Supreme Court
The Supreme Court on Wednesday described cyber fraudsters as “parasites” and said those who cheat innocent citizens must be dealt with sternly, observing that society’s interests are best served when such offenders remain behind bars, as it refused to entertain a plea by an alleged cyber fraud accused seeking the clubbing of multiple cases and bail.
A bench comprising Chief Justice of India (CJI) Surya Kant and Justice V Mohana said, “You people are parasites,” as it dealt with a petition filed by one Manoj Kumar Singh, who is facing multiple cases of cyber fraud in Bihar, Tamil Nadu and Jammu & Kashmir.
