The Central Bureau of Investigation has filed a criminal case against a Punjab National Bank employee accused of orchestrating a three‑year fraud in Greater Noida that involved the illegal breaking of fixed deposits.
The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has officially lodged a case against a staff member of Punjab National Bank (PNB) in connection with a prolonged fraud that spanned three years in Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh. According to the filing, the employee allegedly manipulated bank procedures to break fixed deposits without proper authorization, causing financial losses for depositors.
Investigators said the scheme was concealed over an extended period, allowing the staffer to divert funds and tamper with records. The CBI’s complaint cites evidence gathered from the bank’s internal audit, transaction logs, and statements from affected customers.
Law enforcement agencies have seized relevant documents and are conducting further inquiries to determine the full extent of the misconduct. The case underscores heightened scrutiny of banking operations in the region following a series of financial irregularities nationwide.
