A serious case of fraud has been reported in a bank society in Khurja, Bulandshahr. A family’s fixed deposits (FDs) worth ₹45 lakh were allegedly tampered with in the Nationalised Bank Employees Credit and Thrift Cooperative Society.

Manish Kumar Shahi, a resident of Racecourse Colony, filed a complaint with the police. According to him, his mother Rajneev and his sisters Monika, Sonika, and Garima had invested their money in FDs with this society. The society’s president, Vivek Sharma, is an employee at Punjab National Bank in Peeli Kothi, Khurja.

The family became suspicious when they asked to withdraw the FD amount, but instead of helping, the society’s president Vivek Sharma and the treasurer BN Rai kept delaying and giving excuses. The family alleges that both officials are trying to cheat them and take their money.

Following the complaint, the police registered an FIR (First Information Report) against both Vivek Sharma and BN Rai at the city police station. According to ASP Rijul, the case will be thoroughly investigated, and strict action will be taken against the guilty after the inquiry is completed.

The family had put their money in a trusted bank society as fixed deposits. But when they wanted their money back, the officials started acting suspiciously. Now, the police are looking into the matter to ensure justice is done.
