A person opened an account in the name of a complainant at an ICICI Bank branch in Delhi and misled a housewife by claiming that illegal financial transactions, along with drug trafficking and human trafficking, were happening through the account. He convinced her by saying that the money in the account needed to be checked for its legality, and assured her that if it was found to be legitimate, the money would be returned.

He threatened to register a case in the complainant's name unless she transferred the entire amount from the account to an account he provided through an online transaction. The main accused was identified based on information obtained from those previously arrested in this case, who were from the Kondotty area.
