New Delhi, September 1 (Kiran News): The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) today arrested Garima Singh, Senior Branch Manager of UCO Bank’s Kotwali Road branch in Mathura, for accepting a bribe. She is accused of demanding ₹4 lakh in exchange for clearing a loan of ₹1 crore.
According to the CBI, the complainant’s firm had been sanctioned a cash credit (CC) loan of ₹1 crore by the bank, but only ₹90 lakh was disbursed. The remaining ₹10 lakh was withheld by the branch head, who allegedly pressured the complainant for illegal gratification.
When the complainant’s son visited the bank, the branch head reportedly demanded a bribe of ₹4 lakh to release the remaining loan amount. This sum amounted to four percent of the total loan.
The CBI registered a case and set up a trap operation. The agency caught the accused, along with a private associate, red-handed while accepting the first instalment of ₹2 lakh.
A case has been registered and further investigation is underway.
