The Pragathi Bank Employees’ Union has revealed details about several large-scale irregularities that have allegedly taken place in the People’s Bank and the banking system.

PBEU People’s Bank Branch Deputy Secretary R.U.W.K. Dissanayake said the management had concealed many incidents of theft by some bank officials including theft of gold items pawned by customers and money fraud by stealing pin numbers of debit and credit cards.

He has disclosed these details during an interview with the ‘Mee Massoo’ TV channel.

Mr. Dissanayake accused the senior staff officers of a major state bank of committing a vehicle scam and alleged that some banks even pay income taxes on behalf of their employees.

He also alleged that media institutions have been bribed to prevent them from giving coverage to these incidents.
