In a shocking turn of events, Traffic E Challan Scam is unearthed in Andhra Pradesh. Financial fraud of multiple crores was detected by the cops. They found shocking details in the case after digging deeper. The fraudsters who were involved diverted the money which was supposed to reach the Police department.

G Pala Raju, a 2005 batch IPS Officer who is serving as the Inspector-general of police of the Guntur range held a press meeting to share shocking details in the scam. He spoke in detail about the process of finding the irregularities.

"If we look at how the fraud took place, we will have details on how much amount reached the DG account through AP Online, Meeseva, cash, cards, Zaakpay, MobiKwik, and Razorpay. Actually what he did was he cloned the account. The account which we are thinking as the payment gateway of money is not Razorpay," he said.

"Through Razorpay, he added his account details and named it Razor PE. No matter how many calculations we do everything looks intact. As the money is coming from the account that was cloned, everything is perfect. The amount is not coming from Razorpay, but Razor PE," he observed.

"When we found disturbances in the Tirupati unit, we dug deeper into the case. We found that in 2018 itself, the Razorpay account was opened. He was with other units earlier and gave one account to the payment gateway. He participated in the bidding in 2019," the IG added.

E-challan system was brought to help people pay the fine amount and there are four payment gateways for this. However, there are a few irregularities in the Razorpay account. When dug deeper irregularities worth Rs.36.53 crores were found.

The fraudsters cloned the account and the money paid through the account reached the fraudsters' account. Further investigation is underway and more details are awaited.
