Illegal Call Rerouting Racket Busted in Secunderabad
Imagine some bad guys were tricking the phone system.
They were taking calls from other countries like the US and Middle East, and making it look like the calls were coming from India.
They did this so they could avoid paying the correct fees.
The government found out about this trick and raided their secret spot in Secunderabad, which is a city in India.
They took some computers and other stuff.
One person got caught and is now in trouble, and the police are still trying to figure out who else was involved.

The racket rerouted international calls to display local Indian numbers.
The Department of Telecommunications and Telangana Police coordinated the bust.
Equipment seized included a SIP server, laptops, and other devices.
