Mumbai News LIVE Updates:  Retd company president duped of Rs 75 lakh by bank wealth manager

A retired president of a company was allegedly duped of Rs 75 lakh by the wealth manager of a private bank known to him who promised him lucrative returns on share market investment, Mumbai Police said on Tuesday.

The victim had a salary account with a private bank where the accused worked as a wealth manager. He gained the trust of the victim over the past ten years, police said.

The accused assured a 12 per cent return if the retired executive invested his money in shares who ended up transferring Rs 75 lakh from his savings and fixed deposits between August 2023 and November 2024.

The victim stated in the FIR that he didn`t receive any returns on his money. As the accused hesitated to return his money and stopped taking his calls, he approached Juhu Police, an official said.

Police registered a case of fraud and launched a search for the wealth

Forex traders said the US dollar declined on disappointing economic data from the US. Moreover, the strength of the Asian currencies also supported the rupee. However, a surge in crude oil prices capped the gains.
