The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has charge-sheeted the alleged high-profile conman, Sukesh Chandrasekhar, and an associate on the charges of extorting a huge amount of money from individuals who were accused in criminal cases by posing as senior government officials and promising them help in the investigation.
Sukesh, who is currently in judicial custody, was accused of committing the fraud while he was on judicial parole in 2019 by using spoofing techniques to impersonate senior officials of the Central law enforcement agencies.
In the charge-sheet filed in the court of the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Chengalpattu, on Friday, the CBI said Sukesh and his associate, a resident of Punjabi Bagh in Delhi, had conspired to cheat by impersonation using digital devices.
