Aurangabad, April

5:

The alleged bank

officer, who duped 15 persons of around Rs 80 lakh on the lure of getting huge

loans in the government schemes and job opportunities, was already booked in

several cases before. The police found that cases of cheating and cheque bounce

are sub judice in the court against him.

The accused

Shailesh Baburao Kamble (49, Vinayak Apartment, Gadiya Vihar) duped complainant

Devkant Balwantrao Meshram and others of around Rs 80 lakhs, promising them to

get loans of Rs 25 crores in the government scheme and job opportunities in the

bank. A case in this regard has been registered at the Cantonment police

station. Earlier, 13 complainant came forward and lodged complaint against

Kamble stating that he has cheated them of Rs 74.50 lakhs. Later, two more

complainants also came and told that he duped them of Rs 14 lakh.

During

investigation, the police found that he was not a bank officer but posed as a

bank officer and duped the residents. A case of cheating has been registered

against him at the Mukundwadi police station, and cases of cheque bounce are

pending the court, informed the investigating officer PSI P S Bhagile.

Kamble had applied

for an anticipatory bail in the court through his lawyer but the hearing was

not held on his plea until now, the sources said.
