Police have registered a ninth FIR linking Jharkhand‑based criminal groups to a Green Gas fraud scheme.
Law enforcement officials have filed the ninth First Information Report (FIR) in connection with a fraud involving the Green Gas product, naming criminal networks operating out of Jharkhand as prime suspects. The filing, reported by The Times of India, underscores a growing investigative focus on organised crime groups alleged to be orchestrating the scheme.
According to statements from the investigating officers, the alleged fraud centres on the misrepresentation and illegal distribution of Green Gas, a commodity marketed for domestic and commercial use. Authorities say the suspected gangs have employed deceptive practices to lure consumers and businesses, resulting in financial losses.
The police have not disclosed the exact number of victims or the monetary impact of the fraud, but they confirmed that the investigation remains active. Further FIRs may be lodged as additional evidence emerges, and the agencies involved have pledged to pursue legal action against those identified as part of the criminal network.
