A mid-level banking official in Bengaluru has been arrested for allegedly siphoning off nearly 2.7 kilograms of gold ornaments worth more than Rs 4 crore from customer lockers to finance an online gambling addiction. The accused, an assistant manager at a public-sector bank branch, is charged with criminal breach of trust under Section 316 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita. The alleged theft surfaced after a customer reported missing ornaments while closing her gold loan.
