According to local media such as Jagran News, four people dressed as police officers recently stormed an office in Noida, Uttar Pradesh, India.
They confiscated their phones and laptops, claiming that they were cracking down on cybercrime, and then took three people, including their president and employees, into two black SUVs and forcibly took them to an accommodation in Ludhiana, Punjab.
The police threatened them, saying they were high-ranking officials such as police chiefs and deputy police chiefs, saying, `Charges related to cybercrime have been filed.'
In the meantime, he threatened to pay 100 million rupees (about 1.6 billion won) to cover up the case, and in the process, he took away gift cards, mobile phones, and luxury watches worth US $10,000 (about 14 million won).
However, the president and employees held out saying they had no more money, and were able to be released when Uttar Pradesh police were dispatched due to reports from other employees.
According to the investigation, the culprits were lower-ranking police officers in Punjab.
Uttar Pradesh police arrested and charged them with illegal arrest, impersonation of a high-ranking police officer, and extortion after kidnapping.
The incident is considered a serious crime committed by incumbent police officers by abusing their positions, beyond simple crimes, and is causing a big stir in Indian society.
