ROURKELA: A CBI team raided houses of a post master and a Class IV postal employee here on Friday in connection with the alleged embezzlement of funds from account holders of Dumdapara sub-post office under Biramitrapur post office. The CBI officials refused to divulge details regarding the raid.
According to sources, a couple of account holders of the sub-post office in December, 2012, found that they had no money in their accounts even though their passbooks suggested otherwise. Following complaint of some customers, a departmental inquiry was initiated against post master Pradeep Lakra and Class IV employee Ram Dayal Sharma. They were transferred to elsewhere. During inquiry, it was revealed that deposited amount of many account holders was withdrawn through fake signatures. Later, the duo was suspended and CBI took over the case.
