Jagran correspondent, Bhagalpur. A case of fraud of Rs 4 lakh, 56 thousand, 347 from SBFC Finance Company and absconding by claiming it to be a gold loan of IIFL Finance Company has come to light.

Branch Manager Prashant Choudhary, resident of Bihpur Amarpur of Navgachia, has informed the Tilkamanjhi police station that on January 10, 2026, a customer calling his name as Lekh Raj called the company's land line from his mobile.
He informed that his gold loan is going on in IIFL Finance Company. But the interest rate of that company seems very high, so he wants to transfer his gold to your company. After this, on January 15, Lekh Raj reached the branch taking with him the customer representative of IIFL Finance Company Tilkamanjhi, his Aadhaar card, PAN card, Voter ID card and check book and a stamp paper worth Rs 100.
After completing the paperwork in the office, Rs 4,56,347 was transferred to Lekh Raj's Axis Bank account through RTGS from the branch. In lieu of which, Lekh Raj handed over a check of Rs 4,56,347 to the branch for the period till he brought the gold to the branch and said that he was going to IIFL Finance Company Tilkamanjhi and bringing his gold.
This boll that went from the branch never came back. He was also called from the branch. But no reply came. In this matter, the branch manager has registered a case and requested to return the fraud money.
