B) MODUS OPERANDI:-

In both the cases, accused persons use to exchange the FICN for half the price i.e. Rs.2000/- of fake currency, in exchange of Rs.1000/- of original currency.

In the first case, they used to avoid detection, by using minors as “carriers”. These minors are made to do their bidding because they have been brainwashed. They are given drugs in small quantities and thus induced to become drug addicts. When they crave for drugs, they are asked to work for the traffickers. They used to deliver these consignments from West Bengal to other places in India.

They initially demand original currency from clients and only on its receipt, they deliver the FICN to their clients. The recovered notes are of very fine quality and difficult to detect without sophisticated testing equipment.
