Cybercrime probe cannot justify blanket debit freeze, says HC

A division bench of Justice Shekhar B Saraf and Justice Abdhesh Kumar Chaudhary, while disposing of a petition filed by Lucknow-based businessman Ritesh Yadav, directed banks to de-freeze his accounts and permit their operation beyond the disputed amount of ₹36,000, while retaining a lien over the said amount.
