Bareilly Police arrested three men on Friday night for allegedly printing counterfeit currency notes and distributing them in a house under construction located in the CB Ganj district of Bareilly. The accused printed and circulated Fake Indian Currency notes (FICN) in Rs 500 and Rs100 denominations. The police recovered FICN with a total denomination of 70,000, along with a paper printer, 80 GSM, and other material from the accused.
