Cyber Tracking Scandal Shakes Bhiwadi Police

Seven police officers, including a sub-inspector, were suspended for illegally tracing the phone location of IPS officer Jyeshtha Maitrei. The suspended officials were part of the cyber cell in Bhiwadi and are under investigation by police headquarters.

Seven police personnel, including a sub-inspector, have been suspended after an investigation confirmed that they traced the phone location of IPS officer Jyeshtha Maitrei without authorization.

Maitrei, a 2017 batch IPS officer currently serving as the superintendent of police in Bhiwadi, lodged the complaint after suspecting unauthorized surveillance by her own department.

The matter has sparked a major controversy and is now under the purview of the police headquarters as investigations continue into the actions of the suspended officers from the Bhiwadi cyber cell.
