In the last one month, as many as 11 persons have been arrested for allegedly operating a "local" Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICN) racket in Maharashtra, with its kingpin being a Pune-based real estate agent, Indian Express reports on May 6. Police said the suspects printed FICN at Nashik (Nashik District) and planned to circulate it in the tribal and rural belts of Chandrapur and Gadchiroli Districts, the areas infested by Naxals. The Chandrapur Police have recovered FICN from the suspects, mostly in the denominations of INR 1,000 and INR 500. "So far, there is no evidence to believe the involvement of Naxal outfits in this racket," said the investigation officer. Explaining the modus operandi, Investigation Officer Raju Nivrutti Bhujbal said, "The suspects had scanned a few original currency notes of Rs 1,000 and Rs 500 denominations. They took colour printouts of these notes on good quality A-4 papers, which were purchased from Mumbai. After printing, they would cut the paper in the size of proper currency notes. Using luminous pens, they highlighted the security thread on the fake notes. These fake currency notes were then handed over to the local operatives for circulation in tribal and rural areas."

The special cell of Delhi Police has busted a Bangladesh-based syndicate involved in pumping and circulating Fake Indian Currency Note (FICN), allegedly printed in Pakistan, from unspecified location of India Hindustan Times reports on June 24. The arrested persons have been identified as Anand Tarapedo Bahg, Mohammad Babar, Gopal Laxman Mithapara and Dinesh Gorasava. Among them, two of the accused - Mithapara and Gorasava - were apprehended from Delhi’s Connaught Place on June 19 with fake currency notes worth INR 8,00,000. SN Shrivastava, special CP (special cell), said the recovered FICN are of very fine quality and because of this we suspect that they were printed in Pakistan. The arrests, Shrivastava said, came following an operation, which was launched two months ago by the special cell to bust the syndicate involved in pumping and circulating fake notes in India. “During the operation, we tracked a syndicate based in Malda District [West Bengal] for such activities. The gang used to obtain currency notes printed in Pakistan through Bangladesh border and then circulated them through various people across India. The members of the syndicate from Maharashtra, Gujarat, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Haryana and Rajasthan used to collect the consignment of fake notes from Kolkata and Malda and then the same was distributed in their respective areas,” Shrivastava said.

Security agencies fighting against the circulation of Fake Indian Currency Note (FICN) have to take on a deadly mix of the underworld, various terrorist networks and Inter Services Intelligence (ISI), Pakistan’s intelligence agency, who are using new routes to pump fake currency into India, The Times of India reports on July 15. Sources in the Mumbai Police said the involvement of the underworld has been established on a number of occasions, and distribution of fake currency is controlled by Dawood Ibrahim's aide, Aftab Batki alias Sultan. Sources also said FICN get printed at a press set up by ISI at Sukkur (Sukkur District in Sindh) a border town in Pakistan. ISI has been using Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) and other splinter groups to smuggle fake currency. Moreover, the growing number of FICN seized in Mumbai (Maharashtra) during the last four years indicates a growing menace, Hindustan Times reports on July 15. From INR 62,00,000 in 2009, FICN worth INR 88,00,000 was seized in 2012. And till June 2013, INR 40,00,000 has been seized. In a bid to make the laws more stringent, officials of the Mumbai Police said the union government has made amendments in the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA) 1967, and now production or smuggling or circulation of fake currency has been declared a ‘terrorist act’.
