Gurgaon: A Gurgaon-based fast-moving consumer goods ( FMCG ) company has filed a case against four persons, including two of its former account managers, for siphoning off Rs 2.83 crore from its account by making fake entries in the accounts book. Between 2015 and 2018, the accused made multiple transactions from the company’s account to the personal account of persons they knew, who in turn transferred the money to the personal accounts of the accused.On the complaint of Rajesh Tara, the director of Mawana Foods Private Limited, which has its corporate office in Sector 32, a case has been filed against former employees Anshoo Aggarwal and Sanjay Mudgil as well as Bupinder Singh Latwal and Vinit Kumar, whose accounts were used to siphon off the money, under sections 420, 406 (criminal breach of trust), 467 (forges a document), 471 (using forged document as genuine) and 120B (criminal conspiracy) of IPC at the Sadar police station.Aggarwal, a Delhi resident, joined the company as the accounts department manager in April 2008. In August 2012, Mudgil, a resident of Delhi’s Dwarka, joined the company as assistant manager of the accounts department. In April 2015, the two employees started making unauthorised transactions. The company said that Mudgil used to make vouchers for the transactions and Aggarwal used to authorise them. “The amount of each fraudulent transaction was kept at less than Rs 10 lakh so that Aggarwal would be the first authorised signatory as per company policy. After authorising the transaction, Aggarwal used to obtain the signature of a second authorised signatory,” the complaint said. It has been found out that Latwal, after receiving money from the company, used to transfer almost the entire amount on the same day or the next to the accounts of Aggarwal and Mudgil.In order to cover up their actions, Aggarwal and Mudgil even made false entries in the accounts book of the company. The payments made were shown as debits to other vendor or sales/purchase or tax payable accounts. The duo created forged documents to substantiate the same.From January 2018, Aggarwal stopped coming to office and in February, he gave his resignation through an email. Soon afterwards, Mudgil also left the company. The company detected the fraudulent payments during a bank reconciliation. After completing an internal investigation, it submitted a complaint to police in May, this year. The SHO of Sadar police station said, “We are investigating and trying to track down the accused.”
