Ellangovan vs CCB Tambaram — 341/2026

Case Summary: Ellangovan v. CCB Tambaram (341/2026) The Judicial Magistrate dismissed Ellangovan's petition seeking return of Rs. 21,06,616 allegedly lost to online fraud. The court ruled that the petitioner failed to establish prima facie entitlement because the investigating officer did not conduct proper money trail analysis, examine account holders, or provide complete bank statements. Since fraudulent accounts typically receive deposits from multiple victims, the court found that releasing funds without identifying the specific amount traceable to the petitioner could adversely affect other victims' rights.
