Opposition Leader V.D. Satheesan on Sunday slammed the Kerala Bank over the arrest of a senior citizen in a cheque-bouncing case, two years after he had cleared all outstanding loans.
In a Facebook post, he said Adoor-native Surendran Pillai, a stationary shopowner, was publicly shamed and became the victim of the inefficiency and mismanagement of the bank's officials.
"It was not new generation banks or private lenders, but a bank hailed as Kerala's own bank, which got the senior citizen arrested," he said.
