Industrialist Pawan Ruia, known as the 'turnaround tycoon', was arrested by the West Bengal Police Cyber Crime Wing on March 31, 2026, in connection with a major interstate cyber fraud case involving alleged shell companies and cryptocurrency-based money laundering. The Calcutta High Court had previously granted him anticipatory bail in January 2026 but later vacated that protection, leading police to take him into custody near Eco Park in Kolkata.
