Allegations of a $78 million cryptocurrency fraud and a police raid are causing controversy in the ongoing Assembly elections in Maharashtra, India's wealthiest state. The ruling alliance, which includes Prime Minister Narendra Modi's BJP party, faces opposition from the MVA coalition, which includes the NCP (SP). A former police officer has accused MP Supriya Sule of misusing seized bitcoin for election funding. The BJP party echoed these allegations and shared videos and voice recordings as evidence. Sule denies the allegations and has filed a cyber fraud complaint against the former police officer. The authenticity of the recordings is being debated, with some suggesting the involvement of artificial intelligence technology. Meanwhile, the Maharashtra Assembly elections are still ongoing.
