New Delhi: Delhi Police has registered a case on the complaint of the Ministry of Finance in the connection with alleged attempts to commit financial frauds by a private company.
The complainant told police that last year, they were alerted by a bank that they received a government sanction letter for payment of Rs 7.6 crore to a private company. “The chief manager of the bank informed the accounts officer of the ministry about it. It was clarified that no such payment was issued. Hence, the payment was withheld,” an officer said.
In November last year, another such case was reported. The bank received a cheque of Rs 11 crore for pre-clearance. “The bank official informed the ministry about the cheque which was in favour of a private company,” the officer said, adding that the ministry found it to be bogus.
According to the complainant, the perpetrators fraudulently made bogus signatures and presented fake documents to cause huge financial loss to the government exchequer.
