Background on Hacking Claims

This hacking incident is not isolated. Earlier in December 2024, another group known as “KillSec” claimed to have accessed the Delhi traffic police’s website. They alleged that they could manipulate pending traffic challans, marking them as “paid” if users provided specific ticket reference numbers. This claim was made through messages on their Telegram channel, indicating a troubling trend of cybercriminals targeting law enforcement digital platforms.

The Delhi Police are currently investigating these claims to determine the extent of any data breaches and to ensure that their systems are secure. They are assessing whether any sensitive data was accessed or manipulated during these hacking incidents.
