A city court has ordered the SHO of Police Station Parimpora to file an FIR against an employee of Jammu and Kashmir Bank for allegedly leaking the personal data of a customer.

The court made the order after reviewing a complaint filed by Dr Jehangir Ahmad Bhat, a J&K Bank customer who alleges that Danish Hameed Dar, a Banking Associate at the bank’s Budgam branch, leaked his account details. Bhat’s lawyer said that his client had been receiving a lot of spam communications in recent months, which he suspects are due to Dar’s actions.

He also said that Dar had leaked information about Bhat’s housing loan and cash credit scheme, which he had availed from J&K Bank.

The court said that the SHO had failed to file an FIR despite having evidence of a cognizable offense. It also directed the SHO to provide a compliance report stating whether or not an FIR has been registered.
