No eviction drive in Burrabazar & College Street, clarifies KMC Commissioner
A young private bank employee has been arrested for allegedly defrauding an elderly woman of ₹90 lakh from her bank accounts in Bidhannagar. The accused, identified as Suraj Rajak, was arrested by the Bidhannagar Cyber Branch following a detailed investigation into the financial fraud.
The case came to light on November 11, 2025, when an elderly woman from GC Block approached the cyber branch, alleging that a massive amount had gone missing from her bank accounts. She reported that the money had been withdrawn without her knowledge.
During the probe, investigators found that the amount was siphoned off gradually through accounts maintained at multiple private banks. On questioning the victim, police learned that she had developed an acquaintance with an employee of a private bank, later identified as Suraj Rajak.
Police said the accused allegedly gained the woman’s trust, obtained her bank details, opened accounts in another bank, and systematically withdrew ₹90 lakh. The money was reportedly used for personal expenses, including the purchase of a luxury car. Further investigation in the case is ongoing.
