PNB Greater Noida 'Sector Pi' branch fraud: The CBI named the branch's office assistant, Deepanshi Sharma, an account holder, Ashutosh Pathak, and unknown public and private persons as accused under various sections of the BNS.
The CBI launched an investigation into a suspected fraud involving crores of rupees at the Punjab National Bank (PNB) branch in Greater Noida's Sector Pi. The incident, involving Deepanshi Sharma, an office assistant, Ashutosh Pathak, and several other accused, is said to have resulted in the diversion of funds worth ₹10.24 crore, with an additional ₹35 crore missing from customers' accounts.
The fraud allegedly came to light after a customer, Sangeeta, reported three suspicious debit transactions to the branch head on September 16. The bank has initiated a reconciliation exercise to determine the exact amount defrauded, with initial findings suggesting the fraudulent activity may have begun in 2023.
