He then moved to the police and an FIR was registered against the bank relation manager at cyber-crime, east police station, they said.

"During interrogation, Sultan revealed that he was working with DBS bank from June 2023. During opening a bank account, a person met him and asked to open his current bank account. He said that he has online betting work and needs a current bank account,” ACP (Cyber) Priyanshu Dewan said.

“In return, Sultan was given a bribe of Rs 5 lakh. In greed, he fraudulently changed the mobile number and email ID of the bank account of the complainant and gave the same bank account to his other associate,” he said.
