Cyber blackmailing case: Shatrughan's bail plea rejected
The case of theft and blackmailing involving Shatrughan Singh Tangral, his wife Manjusha, and Rahul, along with some members of Tangral's family and employees of his company, Bizcloud, has come to light. The accused were arrested for stealing source code and data of other companies and blackmailing them while working in Tambi's company. During the hearing, the defense argued that the FIR filed against Shatrughan was wrong and tainted with malicious intent. They claimed that he was a partner in Bizcloud, and the allegations leveled in the FIR were baseless. The defense also argued that the accused should get bail due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
However, the prosecution strongly opposed the bail, claiming that the accused, especially Shatrughan, was a seasoned cyber expert who could tamper with the evidence if released on bail. The defense argued that Shatrughan was a star employee of Exelon Software Private Limited and that Bizcloud was outsourced by Tambi's company in 2015. They questioned why Tambi had remained silent for so many years and argued that there was no direct evidence against the accused.

The prosecution rebutted these arguments, claiming that the accused had stolen data from Tambi's company, and there was a possibility of disturbances if they were released on bail. After hearing both sides, the court refused to grant bail to Shatrughan.
The case highlights the growing problem of cybercrime and the need for stricter laws to deter such crimes. The accused were alleged to have stolen source code and data of other companies and then used it to blackmail them. This not only harms the companies but also puts the confidential data of millions of customers at risk.
In such cases, it is essential to have strong evidence against the accused to ensure that justice is served. The defense argued that there was no direct evidence against the accused, but the prosecution claimed that the stolen data was evidence enough to prove their guilt.

In conclusion, cybercrime is a growing problem that needs to be tackled with stricter laws and better enforcement. It is essential to ensure that the accused cannot tamper with the evidence and that justice is served in such cases. The court's decision not to grant bail to Shatrughan highlights the seriousness of the crime and the need for a fair trial.
