JAMMU, Jan 20: Three employees of a flour mill here were booked for embezzlement of more than Rs 2 crore following which the crime branch of Jammu and Kashmir Police registered a case on the basis of a complaint by Jammu Flour Mills owner Arun Mahajan.
It has been alleged that the three employees, Cilling clerk Narinder Chopra, Accountant Amit Sharma and Salesman Dikshant Anand diverted NEFT transactions to unrelated parties and engaged in under-billing for cash transactions.
The mill came to know about the alleged fraud in September last year after it conducted an audit.
Accountant Sharma allegedly manipulated entries to conceal the fraud.
Police said that the accused persons colluded to commit fraud and deceive the company. Accused Anand allegedly created fictitious entities and sold goods under fictitious names to multiple retailers.
The audit further revealed that payments from the flour mill were transferred by the accused to bank accounts belonging to their family members, relatives, and friends.
