Officials said the CBI has filed a charge sheet against former Yes Bank chief executive and managing director Rana Kapoor as well as Avantha Group promoter Gautam Thapar in an alleged fraud of Rs 466.51 crore in the bank.
Kapoor’s name was not suspicious in the FIR lodged on June 2 last year in this case. However, her role came to the fore during the investigation.
The probe agency has also named Thapar in the scam in its charge sheet filed in the special CBI court in Mumbai.
An FIR was registered against Thapar, directors of Oyster Buildwell Pvt Ltd (OBPL) – Raghubir Kumar Sharma, Rajendra Kumar Mangal and unidentified officials of Taapsee Mahajan, Avanta Realty Pvt Ltd and Jhabua Power Ltd – on the complaint of Yes Bank CVO. Ashish Vinod Joshi
