How to Unfreeze a Bank Account Frozen by Cyber Cell Police in India
Are you a victim of cybercrime? Has your bank account been frozen without any prior notice by the Cyber Crime Cell? You’re not alone.

This blog will guide you on the exact steps to take and explain why Advocate Deepak is one of the most trusted cyber crime lawyers to help you in such cases.
📌 What Is a Cyber Cell Account Freeze?
When law enforcement agencies like the Cyber Crime Cell receive a complaint or FIR related to online fraud or suspicious financial transactions, they can request banks to place a debit freeze on the account suspected to be involved. This is usually done under:
-
Section 420 IPC – Cheating and dishonestly inducing delivery of property
-
Section 406 IPC – Criminal breach of trust
-
Section 66C & 66D IT Act – Identity theft and cyber fraud
⚖️ Your Legal Rights Under the Indian Constitution
If your bank account has been frozen, remember:
-
Article 21: Right to life and livelihood – sudden freeze without notice is a violation.
-
Article 32 & 226: You can approach High Court via a Writ Petition to unfreeze your account.
-
You are innocent until proven guilty.
