According to the reports, the sub-inspector alleged that his debit card was cloned, and an amount of Rs. 40,000 was withdrawn from his account at an ATM kiosk near Yogajog Bhawan in Kolkata.
The cops suspect that a skimming gang that dupes people by inserting skimming machines at ATMs or replacing an original card with a fake one may be responsible for the fraud.
Reports revealed that the gang had fitted the skimming machine sometime in December at Darbhanga but the money was withdrawn in Kolkata after three months.
