ACB said a case was registered in July 2019 to probe allegations of financial irregularities in the loans availed by M/s Aman Hospitality Private Limited, New Delhi, from the of the J&K Bank’s Ansal Plaza branch in the national capital. It was alleged that the officers of J&K Bank Ansal Plaza branch had given loan worth crores of rupees to this firm and in connivance with the said firm, the loan amounts so sanctioned were declared as NPA to facilitate the firm to have a one-time settlement to its advantage,” the spokesperson said. He said the firm had apparently availed loans for the construction of a five star hotel in Delhi with a project cost estimated at Rs 866.89 crore but investigation revealed that the loans were diverted for various other purposes and misappropriated by the borrower Raj Singh Gehlot. Investigation has established that out of the Rs 100 crore sanctioned as term loan in the first phase to M/s AHPL an amount of Rs 35 crore has been diverted by Raj Singh Gehlot. Gehlot, in connivance with the bank officials and other co-accused, through fictitious firms and layering the funds through other banks in a complex maze of transactions had cheated the bank to the tune of Rs 35 crores. Further investigation in the case is in progress, the statement said.   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
