All police stations in Delhi will have specialised cells in around two more weeks for investigating online fraud whose number is rising, Delhi Police Commissioner B S Bassi said today.
Citing the rising number of cases of online fraud, Bassi said that all police stations will have the specialised cells for investigation of online fraud by mid-February.
"Online frauds are rising. By the middle of Feb 2016, all Delhi Police Stations will have specialist electronic/online fraud investigation cells," he wrote on twitter.
Delhi Police are also revamping its Cyber Cell which comes under the jurisdiction of its Crime Branch. So far, the Cyber Cell is the only specialised unit which looks into all the cases of online fraud.
