Nagaur : The price of gold is touching the sky but for about two and a half years no one worried about the manipulation of fifteen kilos of gold here. After the case was registered in the Kotwali police station, the police sidelined the investigation and put it on hold. Now when the dust was removed from the file, the faces of half a dozen accused became clear. The police is soon going to catch the fraudsters in this company which gives loans in the name of gold. The police took the statement of the then auditor on Friday. Sources say that this irregularity in Manappuram Finance Limited, a gold loan company based in Kamal Tower, was revealed during the audit conducted in February-22. The audit had revealed embezzlement/misappropriation of about fifteen kilos of gold i.e. around Rs seven crore at that time. Its price is now around Rs 9 crore. A case of embezzlement was registered in this regard by the then Jodhpur Regional Manager Shivnarayan Reddy in May, about three months later.
It was reported in the report that branch manager Sukh Singh and some other officers/employees, in connivance with the customers who had taken loan in the name of gold loan, not only availed illegitimate benefits themselves, but also gave benefits to some customers and gave the company about fifteen kilos of gold. Slapping. The gold jewelery taken in the pretext of giving loan was weighed along with gems, beads, thread, myna, pearls etc. and the loan was given to the customers accordingly.
