New Delhi, January 6
Intensifying its efforts to dismantle the Lao human trafficking and cyber slavery network, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) searched the house of a recently arrested accused in Jamia Nagar in south Delhi.
The search led to the seizure of digital devices (mobile phones/ tablets) and incriminating financial documents including debit cards, pass book and cheque books of multiple banks.
The case involves a criminal conspiracy by Kamran Haider and other accused persons engaged in sending vulnerable Indian youth to the Golden Triangle Region in Lao PDR. The victims of the human trafficking and cyber slavery racket were forced to commit cyber scams in Lao, targeting European and American citizens.
Investigations so far have revealed that Kamran Haider had facilitated the entire operation and was also involved in extorting money through crypto currency wallets from the victims who had tried to escape the clutches of the Chinese scammers, added officials.
