Hundreds of Chimbel residents who had deposited their savings over the years at
the Chimbel branch of the Mardol based VPK Urban Co-op Credit Society were in
for a rude shock on learning that the bank’s pigmy collector Mrs. Menakshi
Chudu Shirodkar had vanished with their savings. It is estimated that the total
amount involved would be over Rs 30 lakhs
Utt Goenkara activists today visited the bank to demand immediate action
against the culprits and that the money of the banks depositors is returned.
Bank Chairman Mr. Surya Gaude and the Branch Manager Mr. Vaman Gaude have been
urged to order a thorough probe in this serious fraud on the Chimbel
residents.
One wonders as to how the Pigmy collector Mrs. Shirodkar who is now absconding
was able to issue forged pass books and herself withdraw money from the
depositor’s accounts without the connivance of other bank officials.
Bank officials have to explain as to why they had not immediately brought to
the the attention of the Registrar of Co-operative societies and the police
such a serious fraud.
The intervention of Superintendent of Police incharge of the Economic offences
cell Mr. Melwyn Fernandes in the matter has been sought.
