AHMEDABAD
Yogesh Patel, employee of Krishna Coil Cutters, tried to buy 2 kg gold using a company cheque.
Call it a blessing of the new banking technology. An SMS about a huge debit amount from a company’s account revealed that an employee tried to buy 2 kg gold using company’s cheque.
Along with the technology, a jeweller’s vigilance also saved the company from Rs59.16 lakh fraud. The DCB arrested the employee and are searching for his accomplice.
Yogesh Patel, employee of Krishna Coil Cutters, tried to use the blank cheque given to him by the company for depositing in creditor's account. Yogesh used this cheque to buy 2 kg gold from Johnson Jewellers located on CG Road.
He transferred the amount to the jeweller's account through Real Time Gross Settlement (RTGS). When the jeweller insisted on permanent account number (PAN) of the company for the purchase, Yogesh’s aide Gaurang Darji, who was posing as the customer, failed to do so.
Meanwhile, complainant Vivek Gupta, who is working as sales manager in Krishna Coil Cutters, received an SMS about debit of Rs59.16 lakh from the company’s account. Since he did not issue any cheque of this amount, he inquired only to realise that the amount had been credited in Johnson Jewellers’ account.
As all other employees who used to take care of bank-related work were present in the office and only Patel was missing, he became an obvious suspect, said KK Patel, police inspector DCB.
The company’s employees also identified Patel’s handwritings as well as his style of writing cheques, he said.
“We arrested Yogesh Patel while Gaurang Darji is on the run. Darji was promised Rs1 lakh for his help,” said the inspector. He added that Yogesh needed the money to start his own business.
