Bhubaneswar: Former assistant manager of a bank in the capital city was arrested by the Commissionerate Police on Tuesday on the charges of issuing loan against the fixed deposit of a customer.
The former staff bank official Meena Naik was arrested following a complaint filed by 62-year-old Hrushikesh Bhujabal, a retired government employee.
Naik was arrested after a joint raid by Anti-Fraud Cell and Bharatpur Police, said police. According to the complaint filed by Bhujabal, he had transferred Rs 10 lakh (retirement money) to the Ghatikia branch of the bank as fixed deposit on October 16.
