Depositors Demand State Intervention in ₹700 Crore Financial Fraud
What happened
Mohan Srinivasan, president of the Mylapore Fund Aggrieved Depositors Association, requested intervention from the state government to recover funds lost in a ₹700 crore financial fraud. The association plans a protest to seek speedy action to distribute the funds to the more than 6,000 affected depositors. The fraud occurred in 2024, and despite the arrest of the chairman and Managing Director in August 2024, the recovery process has been delayed for over three years.
