During a night‑long operation that started on Thursday, Bangladesh police detained a group that had leased a building to conduct internet‑based scams and gambling activities. The sweep yielded around 2,000 seized iPhones, numerous laptops, and desktop machines, alongside a custom‑built server environment designed for mass online identity manipulation. While law‑enforcement has not formally confirmed the gambling allegations, earlier intelligence pointed to repeated travel by the foreign suspects, large‑scale money transfers and the presence of casino‑like setups at the premises.
