SBI saving bank account frozen
2 months ago
My SBI saving bank account frozen and lein amount is blocked which is more than 10 times of the balance amount in my account. The branch manager told that there was some fraudulent transaction in your account but he is unable to justify that alleged amount as there is no such transaction reflecting in my account summary. Any expert who can guide me to proceed further to unfreeze my account.
A.Dear Client,
The National Cyber Crime Reporting Portal(NCCRP) is an initiative of the Government of India to facilitate victims/complainants to report cybercrime scams or complaints online and once a cyber crime scam is reported online to NCCRP, on the instruction of Cyber Crime Cell, investigating team started the routine process of investigation immediately freezing the suspected accounts of fraudsters and the victim's Bank account and accordingly, on receipt of instruction of Cyber cell, Bank makes the bank account of the customer inoperative putting a lien on it. You have to wait for the completion of the investigation of the scam by the investigating agency and in the course of the investigation if required they can contact and call you to record your statement or to file relevant documents. You need to get in touch with the Cybercrime Cell of your district or state seeking their necessary action in the matter. The length of time it takes to investigate a cybercrime can vary greatly depending on the complexity of the case, the resources available to the investigators, and the cooperation of the victim. In general, cybercrime investigations can take anywhere from a few weeks to several months or even years. Section 457 of the CrPC empowers a Magistrate to use their discretion to order the conditional release of the amount frozen under cyber scam. In this situation, the police seek a bond from the victim who needs to declare that he/she will pay 1. 5 times the refunded amount to the bank in case his/her claim is false or if other claims are made on the amount. Once this is done, the Magistrate executes an order to release the frozen amount to the applicant victim. So, you can file a petition under Section 457 CrPC before the competent court praying for an order for the release of frozen money and following the court's order, and on receipt of the bond, the Investigating Officer of the Cyber Cell will follow up the matter with the banks and the amount is refunded to the accounts of the victims. If required, you may take the service of an Advocate for guidance and steps.
