Bihar: A case of illegal withdrawal of Rs 18 lakh from an account in the Union Bank of India branch located in Sindia Ghat, Singhia Ghat Ward 12, has recently come to light. Ramsagar Singh, son of Dhanik Lal Mahato, the account holder, has filed a written complaint with the local police station regarding this incident. According to his complaint, unauthorized withdrawals totaling approximately Rs 18 lakh were made from his account with the alleged involvement of bank employees. When Ramsagar Singh discovered this discrepancy, he was shocked and immediately reported it to the branch manager. However, he claims that he did not receive a satisfactory response and was even subjected to misbehavior from the branch manager.
Investigation and Other Incidents
Ramsagar Singh also mentioned that a similar incident of illegal withdrawal from an elderly woman’s account had occurred just a couple of days prior. This raises concerns about the security and integrity of the bank’s operations. Additionally, a video showing illegal withdrawals of large sums of money from multiple bank accounts has been circulating on social media, further fueling the public’s anxieties.
Current Status
The local police station’s Station House Officer (SHO), Anand Kumar Kashyap, is currently on leave and unavailable for comment. However, when approached for a statement, the branch manager, Chandan Kumar, confirmed that an investigation into the illegal withdrawal of Rs 18 lakh is underway. He also dismissed the rumors being spread and assured that the matter is being taken seriously.
Not a new thing. Union bank of india allowed withdrawal of Rs. One Crore from my bank accounts by my estranged wife, from a different branch, different city with out any intimation to me by phone, registered Email or SMS . My representation to Ombudsman also didn’t help. Being a super senior citizen at 80 years and a heart patient, living on pace maker,I couldn’t do anything because my daughter ,her husband and her father in law who is a retired senior manager of RBI were all hand in glove in this crime.

Similar tragedy has happened with me as a customer of Union Bank of India, Delhi, when my estranged wife of more than 22 years fleeced me and withdrew ONE crore rupees from my account from a different branch in a different city, without any intimation to me by SMS, Email, or PHONE call by my bank . I came to know of it only after 2 months when I visited the bank. In spite of lodging a complaint to Banking Ombudsman, no corrective action was taken as my case was sent to Jaipur and not dealt in Delhi.
Being a lonely super senior citizen at 80 years of age and a heart patient living on pace maker, I couldn’t follow it up further as myI own daughter, her husband and her father in law who was a retired senior manager of RBI, Delhi were hand in gloves with my estranged wife. I’m suffering because of criminal negligence of UBI towards me.
