Banks begin to freeze bank accounts of toppers scam accused

Patna, Jun 30 (UNI) Banks across Bihar embarked on the herculean task of identifying and freezing accounts of the accused involved in the infamous toppers scam after the Special Investigation Team (SIT) probing the scandal asked the banks to ensure that money was not clandestinely transferred to “benami accounts” .
The SIT has already roped in Economic Offence Wing (EOW) to find out bank accounts of the accused and their near and dear ones as also transfer of money through “havala route” since the scam involved underhand dealings of crores of rupees.
SIT had yesterday asked regional managers of various banks to freeze accounts of all accused who have been put behind bar for their complicity in the toppers scam.
There is no row at position 0.
