Sampath Bank has denied allegations circulating on social media regarding its branch located on Dalada Veediya in Kandy and several of its officials, stating that the claims being shared online are false and misleading.

In a special statement, the bank said the allegations are linked to a complaint involving a loan facility worth nearly Rs. 51 million obtained by a customer of the branch.

The bank further stated that the matter is already under legal proceedings and that both the institution and its officials are fully cooperating with the relevant investigating authorities.

Sampath Bank also strongly rejected reports circulating on social media claiming that any of its officers had been remanded in custody in connection with the incident.

The statement added that since the case is currently before the courts, the bank is unable to provide further comments at this stage other than firmly denying the accusations and misleading statements being spread online.
