Bank Fraud: Case filed against SBI Cashier for not depositing money in customer’s account
Rajasthan: An incident of fraud involving a bank cashier has been reported in Jalore, specifically at the State Bank of India branch located at Tilak Gate. The accused in question is Anita Mirotha, who is employed in the cashier department of the mentioned bank branch.
The victim, Desharam, visited the bank on October 31, 2022, and entrusted Rs 50 thousand to Anita Mirotha for depositing into his account. Desharam provided both the money and the deposit slip to Anita. However, Mirotha deceitfully deposited only Rs 30 thousand into Desharam’s account. Subsequently, she utilized fraudulent means to deposit Rs 20 thousand into her mother-in-law Uganti Devi’s account, without generating any accompanying voucher.
Upon discovering the irregularities, Desharam filed a complaint with the branch. Following an investigation by the branch manager, it was confirmed that Anita Mirotha intentionally misappropriated the funds. Specifically, she deliberately transferred Rs 20,000 to her mother-in-law’s account. On November 2, 2022, Mirotha admitted to her mistake and subsequently deposited the missing Rs 20 thousand back into the victim’s account.
As a result of this deliberate embezzlement, branch manager Narendra Puri, son of Prahlad Puri, lodged a case at the Jalore police station on January 1, 2024.
