CBI Charge sheet employees under120B,420, 406IPC and 13(2) r/w 13(1)


13-Jun-2026 (In Criminal Law)
My friend in a private company was a second signatory to bank documents like LC / Bill discounting /funds transfer in the year 2015-2016. Limits were secured through the Banking Department and were vetted by the Finance department & Banking Department for clearance .. Banking Team signed the first signatory and my friend was the second signatory. This was as per the delegation given to both.During investigation both employees (retired 2019 ) fully cooperated with CBI. Future steps?

Your friend should preserve all delegation letters, approvals and records. Mere signing as second signatory does not establish criminal liability unless knowledge, conspiracy or wrongful gain is proved. Consult a criminal lawyer.

Since the CBI is investigating, your friend should secure anticipatory bail to prevent arrest. They must preserve all delegation matrices, approval emails, and internal vetting records to prove they acted in good faith within their official capacity.
