Varanasi: A personal security firm whose employees were released at the cash-handling system connected to the Ram temple contribution management has actually rejected any function in the supposed embezzlement of offerings, stating it hired workers for the State Bank of India (SBI) at the bank’s demand.
The explanation came in the middle of the continuous probe into the supposed embezzlement of contributions at the Ram temple in Ayodhya, in which 6 of the company’s employees are amongst the 8 individuals jailed by the Special Investigation Team (SIT).
Gaurav Singh, director of Sainik Security Services, informed PTI on Wednesday that the business had actually hired 22 workers and sent them to the SBI’s Ayodhya branch for housekeeping work and had no function in designating their tasks afterwards.
“Our company has nothing to do with the alleged donation theft at the Ram temple. We recruited 22 people and sent them to the SBI branch in Ayodhya for housekeeping work. What work the bank assigned to them thereafter is not known to us,” Singh informed PTI.
He declared that all 22 workers were hired on the guidelines of the primary supervisor of the SBI’s Ayodhya branch.
“The chief manager of the SBI branch in Ayodhya had sent us the list of names and biodata of these 22 people. They were all earlier working with another agency,” Singh stated.
He even more stated his business does not carry out agreements for temples and had actually just provided workforce to the SBI branch.
“We were engaged only to provide housekeeping staff to the SBI branch in Ayodhya. What duties these employees eventually performed and why they performed them is for the bank to explain,” he stated.
Singh stated the SIT was examining the matter, and the firm had actually shared all the details looked for by the private investigators.
The declaration presumes significance as sources in the SBI had earlier informed PTI that the bank wished to change the outsourced cash-counting personnel at the Ram temple around 3 months back after thinking abnormalities in the handling of contributions. They declared that members of the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust did not permit the personnel to be altered.
The supposed embezzlement emerged after an SIT made up by the Uttar Pradesh federal government sent its initial findings, following which an FIR was signed up on June 25.
8 implicated were consequently jailed, and cops stated almost Rs 80 lakh in money, besides some foreign currency, has actually been recuperated up until now from 6 of them. The examination is continuing.
