Karnataka HC rejects PhonePe plea in cybercrime case; says confidentiality must coexist with accountability

The Karnataka High Court dismissed PhonePe's petition challenging the authority of cyber police to request merchant data for an investigation. The court emphasized that consumer privacy should coexist with accountability, allowing lawful investigations to proceed. The case involved online betting fraud, and the police sought transaction data from PhonePe. The court ruled that privacy can't obstruct lawful investigations, upholding police powers to obtain information in cybercrime cases, despite PhonePe's objections citing confidentiality laws.
