A local court on Saturday remanded Ramayani Srimoyee, treasurer of UCO Bank’s Agartala branch, to three days’ police custody in connection with the ₹16-crore AMC fund fraud.

Srimoyee, a native of Noagaon in Assam, was arrested by a Special Investigation Team (SIT) constituted by the state government to probe the case. The SIT, headed by Additional SP (Urban) West Tripura, Dhruva Nath, confirmed her involvement after a round of intensive interrogation.

According to police sources, fraudulent transactions worth nearly ₹7 crore were detected and blocked in time. However, the remaining funds had already been siphoned off into benami accounts using cloned cheques.

Investigators said that the SIT has already unearthed “vital clues” in the case and further arrests are likely. With the court granting three days’ remand, police expect to extract more crucial information from the accused to trace the money trail.
