All the 28 people fraudulently availed loans from the bank’s Shreebag branch in Alibaug town by submitting fictitious papers, said Alibaug police station sub-inspector Om Prakash Kavle.
The fraud occurred between March 2018 and September 2022 during which the public sector lender sanctioned individual loan proposals amounting to Rs 83.19 lakh, he said. Bank authorities came to know about the fraud when an internal inquiry revealed there had been no repayment of these loans, Kavle said. An offence has been registered against the accused at the Alibaug police station.
