Dr. Santosh Kumar Bagla File FIR against Kotak Mahindra Bank
PMO directs Finance Ministry to take action against
Kotak Mahindra Bank MD and CEO Uday Kotak complaints of conspiracy, fraud filed
by Mumbai based businessman Bagla family.
The Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) has directed Union
Finance Ministry to look into a complaint of a well-known business family
against the Kotak Mahindra Bank MD and CEO Uday Kotak and other senior
officials for alleged conspiracy, fraud and forgery.
On the complaints of Bagla family filed earlier this month, the PMO has asked
Secretary, Department of Financial Services (Banking Division) to take
appropriate action into the allegations of criminal conspiracy and illegal
activities.
The Mumbai-based Bagla family has also written to the
President’s Office, and the Union Home Ministry demanding a CBI probe against
the Kotak Mahindra Bank MD and CEO Uday Kotak and other senior officials. They
have also approached Union Home Ministry for penal action against six police
personnel then posted in Barakhamba Road police station for their alleged
connivance with the Kotak Mahindra Bank officials by acting in unfair and
biased manner for arrest of Bhupendra Bagla in complete contravention of legal
procedures.
According to Bagla, the Kotak Mahindra Bank’s top
management entered into a criminal conspiracy with one Virendra Kumar Sharma
who had leased his property to the Bagla family for running their businesses.
Later, Kotak Mahindra Bank committed a loan fraud along with one Virendra Kumar,
the owner of property leased to Cogent EMR Solution Ltd., in which his son Bhupendra was falsely
implicated. Bhupendra was later arrested in the false and frivolous case
despite having anticipatory bail.
In the malafide arrest six Delhi police officials were
also involved against whom a complaint has been filed. Bhupendra was
subsequently given clean chit by the courts, but during the long trial he faced
humiliation and also a broken marriage, while his businesses also suffered huge
losses, alleged Dr. Santosh Kumar Bagla.
“My son was acquitted from Court of Law. Kotak
Mahindra Bank orchestrated the entire fraud and false case to grab a property
which was taken on lease by one of the companies which we ran. Kotak Mahindra
Bank and Virendra are directly involved in creating false and forged loan
documents to implicate my son. It took my family eight long years to come out
clean, but we lost prestige, business respectability and faced social
humiliation, besides suffering huge monetary losses in fighting the case. I
will now file a defamation suit against Kotak. I have also approached the
Reserve Bank of India seeking immediate revocation of banking license of Kotak
Mahindra Bank,” said Dr. Santosh Kumar Bagla.
