Gujarat: CBI court sentences former bank manager, 4 others to five years' RI in fraud case dating back to 2006
Five persons, including a former bank manager, have been sentenced to five years of Rigorous Imprisonment (RI) and a total fine of Rs 3.5 lakh in a bank fraud matter dating back to 2006. The Special Judge for CBI cases, Court No. 06, in Ahmedabad convicted five accused, including Ravinder Sakhram Pathak, the then Manager of Indian Overseas Bank (IOB) in Porbandar, on Monday. A statement from CBI on Monday said the court convicted and levied a fine of Rs 1 lakh each on three firms – M/s Tulsi Pharma Distributors, Porbandar; M/s Tulsi Telecom, Porbandar; and M/s Vachhraj Petroleum, Porbandar; in the case of conspiracy, cheating, forgery of valuable securities, forgery for the purpose of cheating, and using forged documents as genuine, and criminal misconduct. The CBI said it had registered the case on April 17, 2012, on the basis of a complaint of the then Chief Regional Manager of IOB, against Pathak, Tulsi Pharma Distributors, Tulsi Telecom, and Vachhraj Petroleum, along with one Rajshibhai alias Raju Chanchiya and another person. According to the allegations, the accused firms, through its key partners, Chanchiya and the other accused, in conspiracy with Pathak, had committed a fraud and availed various CC (cash credit) limits and term loan accounts by mortgaging already sold properties, submitting fabricated valuation reports, availing double financing against the machinery already hypothecated to the bank, and mortgaging the same properties with another bank. The fraud had caused the bank a loss to the tune of Rs 224.75 lakh, it was alleged. According to the CBI statement, 'Investigation revealed that R S Pathak… from December 2006 to June 2007, had forwarded the proposal of (the three companies) with recommendation to IOB Regional Office, Ahmedabad, without proper scrutiny as per the applicable provisions of the manual, especially when taking over loans from other banks.' The statement further noted, 'He had not confirmed whether the properties offered as security to IOB Porbandar were actually owned by Chanchiya or not. Chanchiya had deposited the original sale deed with IOB Porbandar for a property which was already sold by him. This was not verified by him (Pathak). He had disbursed the advance to the party before creation of charge over immovable properties, which were to be done before disbursement of advance as stipulated in sanction endorsement.' It further said, 'He (Pathak) failed to get vetted security loan documents by the bank's approved lawyer before disbursement of advance facility. He also failed to make an equitable mortgage before disbursement of advance facility. He had wrongly informed IOB, RO (regional office), Ahmedabad, vide letter dated 19.05.2007, that collateral security in each account is obtained as per IOB, RO, Ahmedabad sanction. The false valuation reports prepared by manipulation of one valuation report and one estimate for repair for one property were not scrutinised thoroughly by Pathak.' On December 10, 2012, the CBI filed a chargesheet against Pathak and the three companies for criminal conspiracy, cheating, forgery of valuable securities, forgery for the purpose of cheating, and using forged documents as genuine, and criminal misconduct. After the trial, the court found the accused guilty and sentenced them accordingly, said the CBI.

Farmers protest bank deductions in Trichy
Trichy: Members of the National South Indian Rivers Interlinking Farmers Association staged a protest at the Indian Overseas Bank's (IOB) regional office in Trichy on Monday, demanding that the bank stop deducting government scheme assistance from their accounts to recover unpaid loans. Led by association president P Ayyakannu, the farmers locked the office gates near Cantonment and staged a sit-in inside the premises. They alleged that the bank was unfairly deducting funds credited under Union government schemes, checking CIBIL scores before issuing agricultural loans, and seizing farm equipment for loan defaults. Bank officials appealed to the protesters not to disrupt operations or obstruct staff and customers. Cantonment police, who arrived at the scene, urged the farmers to submit a written petition outlining their grievances. Following this, Ayyakannu and senior representatives held a meeting with IOB officials in the presence of police. The bank assured them that the demands would be reviewed, after which the protesters dispersed.
