CBI Files Chargesheet Against Bishal, Sumi, Tarkik In Online Trading Scam, Days After Court Grants Bail to 2 of Them

The chargesheet is in connection with a significant financial fraud case (RC17E2024) before the Special CBI Court in Guwahati.

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) filed a chargesheet today against online trading scamsters Bishal Phukan, Abhijit Chanda, Sumi Bora, and Tarkik Bora just days after Gauhati High Court granted bail to Bishal Phukan and Tarkik Bora because the investigating agency failed to file a chargesheet against them in time.

The chargesheet is in connection with a significant financial fraud case (RC17E2024) before the Special CBI Court in Guwahati. This development follows the 90-day investigation period post the arrest of the accused.

The case is part of the larger Assam investment scam, a series of fraud investigations being conducted by the CBI at the request of the Government of Assam.

The case was originally registered by Dibrugarh Police in Assam under FIR No. 352/2024 on September 2, 2024, after Bishal Phukan was accused of directing a large-scale financial scam in violation of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) regulations.

Phukan allegedly duped individuals by convincing them to sign notarized investment agreements with promises of high returns, directing their funds into his personal Demat account. He is accused of misappropriating these funds for personal gain, leading to significant financial loss for his clients.

The CBI investigation has revealed substantial evidence against all four accused, strengthening the case against them. On November 19, 2024, the Special Judge for CBI Cases in Guwahati rejected the bail application of one of the accused, Sumi Bora, who remains in judicial custody.

This case is part of a broader effort by the CBI to investigate 41 similar cases in Assam, involving deceptive investment schemes that have defrauded investors across the country. The investigation continues to uncover the scale of the scam, which has affected multiple victims nationwide.
