Cyber crime sleuths lodge case against miscreants who circulated fake G.O on lockdown

Hyderabad: A couple of days ago, chief secretary of Telangana dispelled the falsified order stating about another likely phase of covid-induced lockdown. It was circulated by unknown people on social media. Nonetheless, the Chief Secretary Somesh Kumar denied issuance of any G.O and explained that the Government has no plans to impose any limitations nor a lockdown.

After it came to light, the sleuths of Cyber Crimes wing of Hyderabad police have lodged a case and also warned stringent action against fraudsters who mislead citizens with falsehood and bogus news. The state is witnessing unprecedented spike in cyber crimes since lockdown.

As per KVM Prasad, Assistant Commissioner of Police Cyber Crimes, a suo-moto body of evidence has been filed against miscreants who circulated the fake G.O via online media on Thursday.

Chaos triggered among public on Thursday after a few Whatsapp groups were influxed with the duplicate G.O, purportedly issued by Chief Secretary Telangana, which hinted the enforcement of lockdown in Telangana State from 6pm to 8am with immediate effect.

“We are trying to nab the rumour mongers with the technical evidence, the accused shall be captured soon” said ACP Prasad.
