Punjab National Bank Manager sent to jail for doing Fraud in Loan Account

The police have made an arrest in a case of fraud involving a bank manager in the Kotwali area of Unnao city. The arrest was made following a complaint filed by Dinesh Kumar Mishra of Srinagar Manikot village, on the orders of the court, on May 10, 2023. The bank manager in question, Nitesh Kumar Shukla, who is a resident of Kidwai Nagar Kanpur, was posted at the Punjab National Bank in the city since February 2023.

Allegations and Investigation

Nitesh Kumar Shukla was accused of tampering with a loan account in the name of Kanti Devi. The complaint was made by Kanti Devi’s son, Dinesh Mishra, who reported the incident to the police station back in February. When no action was taken, Dinesh Mishra sought refuge in the court, which subsequently ordered the filing of a First Information Report (FIR) in May 2023.

Upon registering the FIR, the city police initiated an investigation into the matter. City Kotwal Shailesh Singh has stated that despite the allegations being confirmed, the bank manager did not cooperate with the investigation. As a result, a team comprising Sub-Inspector Arjun Singh and Ajit Tripathi from the police station was deployed to apprehend the accused bank manager.

This arrest marks an important step in the ongoing investigation into the alleged fraud committed by the bank manager. The legal proceedings will now continue as the case moves forward.
