Police said they are also looking for one more associate of Jha who is involved with him in the crime. The police have also recovered 92 ATM cards from the arrested accused."

This is not the first such case that has surfaced in Thane. Just three days ago, the incident in which a 60-year-old businessman had lost Rs 14.80 lakh to scammers in an electricity bill fraud case had surfaced from Thane. The victim had received a text message informing him that his "electricity bill" had been unpaid. The scammers then induced the victim to download a remote access app on his phone and siphoned the money from his bank account. The victim was a resident of Kalyan.
