Sudip Kumar, the prime accused in the recently busted ATM fraud case, was arrested by city police in Mumbai even as he tried to escape by jumping from the second floor a building.
Kumar was brought to city on prisoner transit warrant and being produced before a local court. The 49-year-old accused hailing from Bihar was director of RCI Cash Management Private Limited. The company’s office was located in Mumbai.
RCI company was hired another company FSS to upload cash in ATM machines of State Bank of India. As RCI was suffering losses and couldn’t offer to pay salaries to its employees, Kumar colluded with some staff members. At his instance, some employees -who were assigned the task of uploading cash in ATM machines- used to steal cash and pass on the same to Kumar by depositing it in company’s accounts. While the employees were arrested, Kumar had been absconding all these days. He landed on first floor and managed to reach the ground floor through the window but members of the police party caught him.
