On November 14th, Indian police arrested SK Masud Alam, a resident of West Bengal, for his alleged involvement in the WazirX hack. Earlier this year, the hack resulted in over $230 million in cryptocurrency losses, with customers unable to withdraw their funds.

Alam is accused of creating a fake account under the name Souvik Mondal and selling it to the hackers via Telegram. The account was later used for illegal operations on the WazirX cryptocurrency exchange.
