Illegal SIM Card Sale Exposed In Mumbai, Crime Branch Arrests Sameer Mehboob Khan
Mumbai police’s Crime Branch has uncovered a major illegal SIM card racket involving the sale of SIM cards without proper documentation. Sameir Mehboob Khan, the prime accused, was arrested and found in possession of 75 SIM cards and two mobile phones. These SIM cards were sold without KYC (Know Your Customer) verification, often at inflated prices. The sale of SIM cards without proper identification poses a serious security risk, especially amidst heightened alerts in Mumbai and other major cities following recent security operations. Authorities are concerned that such untraceable SIM cards can be misused for criminal and anti-national activities. The Crime Branch is intensifying investigations to dismantle this network and trace buyers. This crackdown aligns with India’s ongoing efforts to tighten security and prevent illegal communications channels from being exploited. The public is urged to remain vigilant and report suspicious activities related to unauthorized SIM sales
