The Supreme Court has directed WhatsApp and other digital companies to take immediate steps to curb the growing digital arrest frauds in the country. A bench headed by Chief Justice Suryakant issued these key orders. WhatsApp told the court that it has already banned 9,400 accounts. The court, which clarified that compensation should be paid if there is negligence on the part of the banks, adjourned the next hearing to November 23, 2026. The state police are also required to submit the progress of the investigation.
