The police was recovered various electronic accessories from Srivastava which all have a total worth of Rs 2.25 lakh. He had a CPU, four laptops, a tablet, four mobile phones, six pen drives and more other accessories.

Ashok Lenin said in the complaint: “Qarth workers have developed an app and accessed details on Aadhaar website without authentication and provided the same as e-KYC details. The Data theft started on January 1 and went on until July 26.”

Ajay Bhushan Pandey, CEO of Unique Identification Authority of India stated “Residents should share or provide their Aadhaar numbers only to official government sites, authorized agencies, banks, telecom companies and other service providers after doing due-diligence and verifying the authenticity of such sites.”
