The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Thursday conducted raids at several locations in West Bengal in connection with a Rs 7.5 crore fraud case in UCO Bank. CBI had taken over the case on the basis of a complaint from the bank.
The operations primarily targeted the New Alipore and New Town areas. In New Alipore, five teams from the agency focused on a fifth-floor residence within a prominent multi-storeyed complex at Plot No. 28. The CBI was accompanied by paramilitary forces.
The case was officially registered by the CBI in 2023 following a complaint from the bank. The fraud case is related to a loan taken from the bank in 2016.
