Supreme Court Directs Centre On Digital-Fraud Procedure

The Supreme Court on February 9, 2026 described the siphoning of over ₹54,000 crore by digital frauds as 'robbery' and directed the Centre to draft a standard operating procedure in consultation with the RBI, banks and the Department of Telecommunications. It ordered the Ministry of Home Affairs to prepare a draft MoU within four weeks, asked the CBI to identify digital arrest cases, and urged a compensation framework and rapid account-freezing measures.
