\"The nodal officer for Tata Tele Services<\/a> had informed the authorities about the illegal exchange operating out of the location on the basis of inputs from its fraud management team,\" the ATS said.
\"The company said it had provided a phone connection in the name of a woman who hails from Vadodara in Gujarat for setting up a call centre for an IT firm. However, the connection was tampered with and used for connecting international calls and then diverting them to Indian phone numbers as domestic calls,\" the agency said.
This act not only caused loss of revenue to the public exchequer but also compromised national security, the ATS noted.
One person, identified as Bittu Kumar Mishra of Purnea in Bihar, was arrested from the spot, it said, adding further investigation is underway.
An FIR has been lodged at the Phase 3 police station of Noida under Indian Penal Code sections 420 (cheating), 120B (criminal conspiracy) besides provisions of the Indian Telephone Act 1885, the ATS said.<\/body>","next_sibling":[{"msid":87770046,"title":"Orange CFO forecasts 'inevitable' merger within French telecoms","entity_type":"ARTICLE","link":"\/news\/orange-cfo-forecasts-inevitable-merger-within-french-telecoms\/87770046","category_name":null,"category_name_seo":"telecomnews"}],"related_content":[],"msid":87770073,"entity_type":"ARTICLE","title":"Illegal international call exchange busted in Noida: UP ATS","synopsis":"\"The nodal officer for Tata Tele Services had informed the authorities about the illegal exchange operating out of the location on the basis of inputs from its fraud management team,\" the ATS said.","titleseo":"telecomnews\/illegal-international-call-exchange-busted-in-noida-up-ats","status":"ACTIVE","authors":[],"analytics":{"comments":0,"views":348,"shares":0,"engagementtimems":1275000},"Alttitle":{"minfo":""},"artag":"PTI","artdate":"2021-11-18 07:37:24","lastupd":"2021-11-18 07:39:32","breadcrumbTags":["tata tele services","telecom news","Industry","phone exchange","illegal phone exchange","department of telecom","uttar pradesh police"],"secinfo":{"seolocation":"telecomnews\/illegal-international-call-exchange-busted-in-noida-up-ats"}}" data-news_link="//www.iser-br.com/news/illegal-international-call-exchange-busted-in-noida-up-ats/87770073">
