In a bizarre incident, Ahmedabad Police have seized fake currency notes amounting to Rs 1.60 crore, but with a peculiar twist\u2014these counterfeit Rs 500 notes featured actor Anupam Kher\u2019s image instead of the traditional portrait of Mahatma Gandhi. According to a report by TV9 Gujarati, the fake notes also had “Resole Bank of India” printed on them, instead of “Reserve Bank of India.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Fake<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The images of these fake notes have since gone viral on social media, drawing a mix of shock and amusement from the public. While some expressed disbelief, others found humor in the surreal replacement of Gandhi’s iconic image<\/a> with that of the actor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fake Currency Operation Busted in Surat<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This recent discovery of counterfeit notes comes on the heels of another fake currency operation busted in Surat, Gujarat. On September 22, police arrested four individuals for running a counterfeit currency manufacturing unit inside the office of an online garment store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Deputy Commissioner of Police Rajdeep Nakum, the accused were allegedly inspired by the web series Farzi<\/em>, starring Shahid Kapoor, which revolves around counterfeiting currency. The accused had rented office space in a commercial building under the pretense of running a legitimate online garment business. However, they were secretly printing high-quality fake currency with a face value of Rs 1.20 lakh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inspired by the Farzi<\/em> Web Series<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Surat Special Operations Group (SOG) conducted a raid in the Sarthana locality after keeping a close watch on the office and the people working there. The raid occurred when the accused gathered to print counterfeit notes. Police arrested three individuals on the spot, and a fourth person was later taken into custody.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This incident highlights how popular media, like the Farzi<\/em> web series, can influence criminal activities. The counterfeit currency operation was highly organized, and the authorities believe the perpetrators were aiming to distribute large quantities of fake currency throughout Gujarat and beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These back-to-back incidents underline the ongoing issue of fake currency in India and the need for vigilant enforcement to curb such illegal activities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
