The BMTF police arrested a BBMP staffer for transferring Rs 4.15 crore to a fake account.

Raghavendra, an SDA, allegedly opened a fake account in Janatha Co-Operative Bank in the name of contractor C G Chandrappa, while BMTF had already arrested four persons.

A BMTF officer said Raghavendra was caught in Malai Mahadeshwara Hills where he had gone into hiding after the incident came to light.
