According to police sources, based on secret information, the Detective Department, Cyber Crime, Special Operation Group (SOG) of Siliguri Metropolitan Police and Matigara police conducted a joint operation on Wednesday night at the IT park in Matigara and arrested 20 people, among them five are women. The main accused have been identified as Sunil Gupta and Abhishek Rajput from Gujarat.

They had been running the illegal call centre from the rented apartment. “Such raids will continue,” added the ADCP.
