The cybercrime cell arrested three main suspects, Rakesh Sav, Bipul Biswas, and Saumyajeet Ganguly, along with several others, for allegedly conducting fraudulent activities under the guise of Adani Health Ventures Limited (AHVL). 

Neha Lal, the general manager of AHVL, complained to the cyber crime cell on May 22 stating that many individuals, including Sovan Chogle, Shashi Sinha, and Saumyajeet Ganguly, were involved in fraudulent activities such as collecting deposits in the name of the company and promising medical product distribution franchises.

Upon investigation, it was found that a fraudulent office had been set up in the World Trade Tower in Jaipur, Rajasthan, in the name of Adani. 

Hardik Makadia, superintendent of police (SP) for cybercrime said, “The team has apprehended the three main suspects of the cybercrime gang: Soumyajit Ganguly (resident of Praganas, Kolkata), Rakesh Sav, and Biplab Biswas, residents of West Bengal. Other individuals associated with this gang are also under suspicion.”

As per reports, Sav used to provide bogus documents for Aadhar cards, SIM cards, and bank accounts in the company. Biswas was identified as the proprietor of AHVL while Ganguly was identified as sales manager. 

The investigation is ongoing to uncover further fraudulent activities, including the potential involvement of other individuals and the large sums of money involved in medical franchise deals across the country.
