Senior citizen duped at ATM kiosk in Balipatna

Tuesday, 31 December 2019 | PNS | BHUBANESWAR

A youth duped a senior citizen on the pretext of helping him withdraw cash from an ATM kiosk at Balipatna on the outskirts of Bhubaneswar on Sunday.

The victim was Dharmananda Swain, a resident of Jhinti Sasan under the Balipatna police limits.

Reports said Swain had attempted to withdraw Rs 36,000 from his State Bank of India account through his debit card in the ATM kiosk but failed. After his unsuccessful attempt, a youth, who was standing behind him, came forward with an offer to help him withdraw money. The youth took Swain’s ATM card and fled from the area after withdrawing cash of Rs 36,000.

A police probe has been initiated into the incident following a complaint by the victim.
