The lien can be placed on the specific transaction amount or on the entire account balance, depending on the volume of claims and instructions from the investigating authorities. In the course of the investigation, you may be interrogated by the police or the IO of the Cybercrime Cell to access or identify the source of the fraudulent transactions. The length of time it takes to investigate a cybercrime can vary significantly depending on the case's complexity, the resources available to investigators, and the victim's cooperation. Be prepared to provide any information or documents requested by the bank or the cyber cell related to your account transactions and gather evidence like receipts, transaction details, or communication logs that support your claim. Keep in touch with both the bank and the cyber cell to track the progress of the unfreezing process. If you encounter difficulties or need assistance with the legal procedures, consult with a lawyer specializing in cybercrime and banking law to navigate the issues effectively.
