once at the venue in the seven

being washed out) and will

hope to keep winning on what

On Dec 14, following credible information, that accused Kalishwaran was expected to

arrive at Veer Savarkar airport from Chennai, a team was deployed at airport and on arrival

at airport he was immediately detained and put to sustained interrogation during which he

confessed to the crime and disclosed names of his accomplices in the crime. He also

disclosed the modus operandi adopted by them, stating that they used to take assistance

of known people in securing gold loans by mortgaging fake gold ornaments purchased

from Chennai. He told that since he was the Appraiser for the bank, he could pass off fake

gold as genuine. No one ever doubted the quality of gold and he could obtain multiple

gold loans using fake gold. He also said that there could be up to 500 fake gold loan

accounts in various branches of A&N Sate Cooperative bank.

The accused Kalishwaran was arrested and Police Custody remand has been obtained to

further unearth the facts and people involved in the crime. It is noteworthy that the
