Gate responds to the judicial freezing of user assets by Indian police: The case is still under review, and no assets have been transferred yet.

November 15 — According to an official announcement, in response to a user's assets being subject to a judicial freeze requested by Indian police, Gate stated that as an independent third party, the platform will not make judgments on the funds involved or promise to transfer assets based solely on unilateral materials. Every request is reviewed internally on a case-by-case basis, and currently no assets have been transferred. Throughout the entire case from 2025 to the present, Gate has been investing legal resources to continuously follow up, helping the user establish communication channels and buy time, rather than directly cooperating with enforcement upon receiving the Indian police's request.

In September 2025, Gate received an asset freeze request from Indian police, and its anti-money laundering team and legal team subsequently repeatedly requested supplementary evidence and case materials. Gate stated that the on-chain records provided by the police involved multiple wallets and fund transactions. In April 2026, the police made a request related to asset transfer; Gate did not directly promise to execute it and continued to request supplementary materials. According to communications in September of the same year, the case was still under judicial review at that time. Gate will continue to retain these funds and will not easily transfer them away during the user's defense process, continuously helping the user resolve the issue.

Gate stated that on the day it received the police's notice regarding the submission of prosecution materials, the platform immediately inquired whether it could disclose the progress to the user, and after obtaining consent, informed the relevant user so that they could seek legal remedies. According to the opinion of a local law firm, Gate as a third party cannot defend or raise objections on behalf of the user, but will continue to assist the user in communicating with relevant parties and provide legal support. Gate stated that during the user's defense period, the platform will continue to retain the relevant funds and will provide updates when there is new progress.
