The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) carries out coordinated raids in several locations across India in connection with an alleged cyber-slavery trafficking racket. According to reports, the CBI searches include areas in Mumbai, Delhi, Lucknow, and Kathipur/Kashipur, along with locations in Uttar Pradesh, including parts of Gonda and Saharanpur districts. The case is linked, as described by the outlets, to trafficking networks that operate with connections to Southeast Asian nations. The reports also state that one person is held in connection with the operation.

While the outlets emphasize the alleged “cyber slavery” aspect of the trafficking scheme, they broadly agree on the core action taken: multi-state CBI raids targeting the suspected network and the initial arrest. Details on charges, the identities of those involved, and the extent of any victims’ rescue or arrests beyond the single person held are not specified in the provided excerpts. The CBI investigation is ongoing, and further information would be expected as the case proceeds through legal processes.
