UP ATS said Deepak Mandal and his gang do the work of delivering counterfeit notes printed in Pakistan and smuggled from Malda district of West Bengal, adjacent to the India-Bangladesh border, to different states of India.
Recovered counterfeit currency is cleverly used in camouflage to make it look like genuine notes by affixing a watermark and RBI stripe.
