According to authorities, two individuals were detained for allegedly producing and distributing high-quality counterfeit indian rupee notes in delhi and the National capital Region. One of the defendants intended to produce phoney indian currency notes (FICN) in order to make quick cash. They said that he was motivated by the online series "Farzi". 

The defendants were named as Tajeem and Irshad from the Kairana area of Uttar Pradesh. The two were found in possession of fake cash worth Rs 5,50,000 (Rs 5.50 lakh), all in denominations of Rs 2,000, they said. To capitalize on its phasing out, the accused created and distributed currency notes with a denomination of Rs 2,000.

On june 21, the police received a tip that a member of a group dealing in phoney indian money would be visiting Alipur to deliver a package. Tajeem was captured after a trap was set, and high-quality FICN worth Rs 2,50,000 (2.50 lakh) was found on him, according to Special Commissioner of police (Special Cell) HGS Dhaliwal.

Tajeem acknowledged getting the phoney money from Irshad to circulate. Irshad was subsequently captured by the police in Kairana, and FICN worth Rs. 3 lakh (Rs. 30,000) was found at his residence, according to Dhaliwal.

Irshad told the police that he began providing those in Delhi/NCR after realising the strong demand for FICN and the profit margin, and he began producing the phoney notes at his store.

To create the FICN, the right tools and raw ingredients were utilised. They bought special ink as well after browsing numerous websites. According to the authorities, Tajeem was a dyer who disseminated the notes through his contacts.

Irshad had experienced severe losses as a result of the Covid epidemic. He considered producing phoney currency while coming up with business concepts since Kairana has historically been a centre for such operations, according to the police.
