Allegations had been raised against him after Kodiyathur grama panchayat vice president Babu Polukunnath was booked on the charge of pawning fake gold to secure ₹27 lakh from the branch. The Mukkom police registered a case against Mr. Polukunnath on a complaint from the bank authorities. He reportedly colluded with Santhosh Kumar and Vishnu Perumanna, who were recently remanded in judicial custody.
