Jind, Haryana: Police have registered a case against HDFC Bank’s Regional Manager Saloni Goyal and other employees for allegedly cheating a family of Rs 68 lakh in Jind, Haryana. The fraud happened under the pretext of helping the family get a loan limit on their property.
In her complaint to the Civil Lines police, Sushila Devi, a resident of Apex Green Society in Sonipat, explained that her husband, Vinod Kumar, and mother-in-law had gone to visit a relative, Rajendra Dalal, in Jind. They discussed their need to arrange a loan limit on their property. Rajendra Dalal suggested that Saloni Goyal, who had been renting a house from him for six years, could help with the process.
When they spoke to Saloni Goyal, she asked them to provide the necessary documents for the loan. A few days later, Saloni Goyal visited their home with two bank employees, accompanied by Rajendra Dalal. At that time, both Vinod Kumar and his mother were suffering from vision problems, which made it hard for them to see clearly. Taking advantage of this, the bank employees reportedly convinced them to sign some bank documents and blank cheques, claiming it was for security purposes.
Between January and August, Saloni Goyal and the other bank employees allegedly misused these signed documents and defrauded the family of Rs 68 lakh. Investigating officer ASI Jogendra Singh confirmed that a case has been filed and an investigation has started. More details will be released as the investigation progresses.
