Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): Bank officials of a nationalised bank in Morena ripped off Rs 23 lakh of the bank by opening four fake bank accounts and four original bank accounts, said officials on Tuesday.
The deputy zonal manager of the bank filed a complaint to Economic Offences Wing (EOW), Gwalior, stating that from 2013 to 2016, the then staff member in the bank had formed a nexus and cheated the bank and the depositors.
The bank employees Mahendra Singh Bijoria, Gorishankar Ram, Ruchi Tiwari, Indranath Biswas, Vikash Sharma, Vikas Trivedi, Vijay Kumar Mehta and Saurabh Mishra cheated the bank.
These bank employees misused and manipulated the accounts of eight people. They opened four fake accounts by using the documents of the account holders. They also withdrew the amount of the fixed deposits of the eight depositors before maturity and closed the accounts. These staff withdrew the money by using fake and fabricated withdrawal vouchers. The police have registered a case against the suspects.
