Two men have been arrested in Gujarat’s Surat and another two in Calcutta in connection with a series of ATM frauds in the city.
More than Rs 2 crore was fraudulently withdrawn from at least 10 ATMs of a private bank in Calcutta within a week last month. Police said that in each case the ATM was disconnected from the bank’s server and a proxy server was set up before the money was withdrawn.
The anti-bank fraud section of Calcutta police’s detective department rounded up the four early on Sunday.
The two picked up from Surat have been identified as Manoj Gupta, 40, and Naveen Gupta, 30, both from Fatehpur Beri in Delhi. The ones arrested in Calcutta are Bishwadeep Routh and Abdul Saiful Mandal.
