The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Saturday conducted searches at several locations in Delhi-NCR, Chandigarh, Kolkata and Orissa, at the offices of a New Delhi-based private company in a bank fraud case. It also conducted searches at the residential premises of the company`s directors, promoters and their associates after a case was registered, a CBI statement said.

The investigation agency said the private company, through its directors and other staff, fraudulently diverted around Rs 2,348 crore from the loan account of Punjab National Bank (New Delhi and Chandigarh), Oriental Bank of Commerce (Kolkata), IDBI Bank (Kolkata) and UCO Bank (Kolkata) to the accounts of various shell companies "without any obvious purpose and thereby misused the funds".
