This bank is on Govt radar, have you deposited money in this bank

New Delhi: After the note ban many banks are in trouble, after their staff was caught in the money exchange racket. Like Axis Bank, now Kotak Mahindra Bank is facing trouble.

Kotak Mahindra Bank's branch manager of KG Marg, Ashish Kumar, was arrested on Wednesday for illegally convering old notes for a commission of Rs 1.5 crore. What is worring is that he may not be the bank's only manager involved in the conversion racket. ED sources say that some more branches of the bank are on its radar.

Ashish Kumar has been accused of converting Rs 34 crore black cash on a commission of Rs 1.5 crore.

The investigation is part of the probe against Delhi-based lawyer Rohit Tandon and Kolkata-based trader Paras Mal Lodha, who allegedly are involved in a Rs 1000-crore conversion racket.

"With reference to the ongoing investigation of the said accounts, Kotak Mahindra Bank had proactively informed Financial Intelligence Unit and the bank has already suspended the services of its employee Ashish Kumar," Kotak Mahindra said in a statement.

"The bank has zero tolerance towards employees not adhering to its Code of Conduct, and takes strict measures against them," Kotak Mahindra spokesperson Rohit Rao said.

Kotak Mahindra said it was cooperating with the probe agencies.
