New Delhi, Nov 1 (IANS) A cyber crook involved in duping Japanese citizens through a fraudulent tech support was arrested by the CBI at Bhubaneswar Airport on his return to India, an official said on Saturday.

Dwibendu Moharana, a key accused in a transnational cybercrime syndicate, was arrested on October 30 and subsequently sent to CBI custody by a court for interrogation, the official said in a statement.

The federal probe agency said that following coordinated searches on May 28 at 19 locations across Delhi, Haryana, and Uttar Pradesh, which led to the arrest of six operatives, Moharana absconded from Bhubaneswar to the UAE on May 29.

He flew out of the country immediately after his call centre at Voip Connect Pvt Limited, Noida, was uncovered, the CBI said.
