Shimla: A case of fraud involving crores of rupees in banks has come to light in Himachal Pradesh. The CBI has registered cases for fraud amounting to a total of 36.34 crores in two separate incidents.
The first case is linked to the Baddi branch of the State Bank of India, where a private company from Hyderabad committed a fraud of 33 crores. The company’s Managing Director, Sandharpalle Venkateiya, and Director, Gudaluru Mastan, along with some unknown government officials and private individuals, were involved in this scam. The accused attempted to sell mortgaged properties in the bank without authorization and did not deposit the proceeds from the sale into the bank. The company’s plant and factory are located in Baddi.
The second case is related to Punjab National Bank, where two partners of Devang Sales Corporation defrauded the bank of 3.34 crores. The company’s registered office is in Rajasthan, and its unit is located in Kala Amb, Sirmaur. This case was registered following a complaint from the bank’s branch manager, Kapil Matta.
The CBI’s Anti-Corruption Bureau in Shimla is investigating both cases. In both incidents, the accused conspired with bank officials and others to carry out the fraud.
