A 29-year-old executive of a gold loan company was arrested after he reported a false robbery case and allegedly stole ₹4 lakh, which he had to deliver to one of the firm’s branches. The police arrested the employee, Arun Kumar, on Wednesday within an hour after he reported that he had been attacked.
Sanjeev Patil DCP (West) said Kumar had joined the gold loan firm last month as a sales executive. His job was to collect cash from the main office in Shivajinagar and distribute it to other branches across the city.
“On Wednesday morning, he collected ₹8 lakh from the main branch and left the premises on his scooter at around 10 a.m.,” said police. But instead of heading to the branches, he went to his house, and stashed ₹4 lakh cash, after which he headed to a branch located in Bapujinagar. While depositing the cash, he told staff members that he had to deposit ₹4 lakh at another branch and left.
