The apprehended individual has been identified as Aminul Haque, a significant player in the realm of cyber criminal activities.
During the raid, law enforcement authorities seized a staggering 238 fake SIM cards from Aminul's possession, highlighting the extent of his involvement in illicit activities.
The arrest serves as a significant blow to the network of cyber criminals, as Aminul's actions were known to disrupt and compromise the online security of countless individuals.
