Bank officer held for 27L fraud
Lucknow: The economic offences wing (EOW) of the UP Police on Monday arrested Chheda Lal Anuragi, former bank officer, accused of orchestrating Rs 27 lakh fraud by opening fake accounts in collusion with bank staff and others. He was arrested in Agra where he was posted as branch manager at Indian Bank, Holipura. EOW said that the case dates back to 2006, when Anuragi served as retail banking officer at the Allahabad Bank branch in Atarra, Banda. He along with other officials allegedly opened two fraudulent accounts using forged documents and IDs. Similar fake accounts were opened in Union Bank of India, Punjab National Bank, Central Bank of India and Bank of Baroda. Using these fake accounts, chequebooks were issued and account payee cheques were deposited at Allahabad Bank's Atarra branch.

Investigations revealed that the original accounts held only nominal balances (as little as Rs 1,000–2,000), yet multiple high-value cheques were cleared.

Burglary at two Army officers' residences in high security zone
Lucknow: Two senior Army officers fell prey to burglaries in MRA Vihar Govt Housing Colony, raising concerns over safety in high security zone. The thefts took place on July 11 while both officers were away on leave. Upon returning, they discovered forced entry into their houses-- House Nos. 15B and 14B-- and missing valuables, including jewellery and cash. Colonel Hari Kumar Gupta, posted at Base Hospital, Lucknow, was on leave from June 15 to July 14. On July 11, his domestic help called him to inform him about the theft. Gupta rushed back from Gorakhpur the next morning and found the door's latch removed and rooms ransacked. A gold necklace set and approximately Rs 70,000 in cash were reported stolen. He also discovered that the neighbouring house had been similarly broken into. Major Debashish Mohan Kapoor, residing next door at 14B, returned from leave on the same day after being informed by his aide about the broken lock. Kapoor found his cupboard broken and several items missing: two gold chains, six silver toe rings, a silver anklet and Rs 1,000 cash. "Both FIRs were filed on July 13 at Alambagh police station. S-I Dinesh Singh has been assigned to investigate both incidents," said SHO Alambagh Subhash Chandra. Police suspect a coordinated burglary and are examining CCTV footage and technical clues from the scene. Given the proximity of the homes and the similarity in modus operandi, officials believe a single group may be responsible.
