BNS Section 317(2) | Facilitating Mule Accounts for Cyber Fraud Justifies Bail Denial Even Without Receipt of Proceeds : Chhattisgarh HC
The Chhattisgarh High Court denied bail to an accused who facilitated a bank account used in a ₹1.3 crore cyber fraud, holding that active participation in structuring financial infrastructure for fraud - regardless of direct gain - constitutes indispensable involvement in organized crime. This sets a critical precedent for prosecuting intermediaries in digital financial crimes, expanding liability beyond beneficiaries to enablers.
