Five years on, 11 accused have been convicted for the cyber attack on Cosmos Bank but the probe is still on as the cybercrime involved several perpetrators with global links.
When the victim disclosed the incident to his son, and the latter inquired with Central Bureau of Investigation officials, it became clear that the complainant had fallen prey to an elaborate cyber scam.
Deceased Abhishek Rathod has been booked in a few offences in the past. Following a previous dispute, a group of men allegedly attacked him with sharp weapons around 9 pm on Wednesday.
