Deepfake scam: Ahmedabad-based accused questioned in Kerala

Ahmedabad-based Kaushal Shah, accused in the Deepfake ID scam case, will spend more time behind bars after the Chief Judicial First Class Magistrate Court in Kozhikode extended his remand period for 14 days.

The man from Usmanpura in Gujarat, who was incarcerated in Tihar Jail in a similar case, was produced before the court here at the request of the Kozhikode City Cyber Police.

The court allowed City Cyber Police to question him for two-and-a-half hours on Wednesday on the court premises and later from January 26 to 29 at the Tihar Jail in Delhi.

Shah and three others were arrested for swindling Rs 40,000 from 74-year-old Radhakrishnan, a retired central government officer at Palazhi in Kozhikode, using deepfake technology on July 2023. This was the first case of money extortion in the country using AI technology. The main accused in the case is Shaikh Murthu Samiya Hayath, who is also imprisoned in Tihar Jail.

The accused is already in jail in a similar case registered by the Delhi Police, in which they have invoked IPC section 420-66E and 66D of the Information Technology Act. So the Kozhikode police recorded his arrest online 14 days ago and produced him before the CJM court online and the court remanded him. Now the police produced him physically before the court and the remand period was extended.

As per the case, the culprits asked for money using Radhakrishnan’s former colleague Venu’s image and sound generated by AI.
