Subject: Request for Removal of Lien Amount on Bank Account - Account Number: [Insert Account
Number]
Respected Sir/Madam,
I, [SK MD HANIF], a resident of [Your Complete Addres], humbly submit this representation requesting
the removal of the lien amount imposed on my bank account at [Bank Name]. The lien has been placed
in connection with a cyber fraud investigation involving transactions allegedly linked to my account.
Details of the Case
1. Account Information:
Account Holder Name: [Your Name]
Bank Name: [Bank Name]
Account Number: [Insert Account Number]
IFSC Code: [Insert IFSC Code]
Branch Name: [Insert Branch Name]
2. Reason for Lien:
The lien amount was imposed as part of an investigation related to alleged fraudulent activities.
While I respect the ongoing investigation, I assert that I have no involvement in or knowledge of any
fraudulent transactions.
3. Nature of Involvement:
I have been a victim of a scam orchestrated by [Fraudulent Entity/Organization Name, if applicable].
My account was used unknowingly, and I have no malicious intent or participation in any fraudulent
activities.
4. Complaint Details (if applicable):
Acknowledgment Number: [Insert Complaint Number]
Category of Complaint: [e.g., Online Financial Fraud]
Complainant Name: [Insert Name of Complainant]
Date of Incident: [Insert Date]
Police Station: [Insert Name and Address of Police Station]
Grounds for Request
1. No Fraudulent Intent or Knowledge:
I am a law-abiding citizen who has been wrongfully linked to this investigation due to unintentional or
accidental circumstances.
2. Cooperation with Investigation:
I have fully cooperated with the authorities by providing all required documentation and details. I
remain willing to assist further to establish my innocence.
3. Financial Hardship:
The lien amount has caused significant financial distress, restricting me from fulfilling essential
obligations like medical expenses, utility payments, and daily needs.
4. Legal Precedents:
Madras High Court Judgment: Mohamad Safitulla v. State of Tamil Nadu: The court held that
actions such as freezing or imposing liens on accounts without substantive evidence violate the
principles of natural justice.
Delhi High Court Judgment: Pawan Kumar Rai v. State of Delhi: The court ruled that any punitive
actions, such as liens or freezing, must be supported by thorough investigation and concrete
evidence, ensuring innocent individuals are not unfairly penalized.
These judgments affirm that such restrictive measures should only be imposed with sufficient
justification, which is absent in my case.
Request for Relief
In light of the above, I humbly request the following:
1. Immediate Removal of Lien Amount:
I request that the lien amount imposed on my account be removed immediately, as there is no
substantive evidence linking me to any fraudulent activities.
2. Fair and Impartial Investigation:
I request that a detailed and impartial investigation be conducted to establish the facts and absolve
me of any unwarranted allegations.
Documents Submitted for Verification
To support my representation, I am attaching the following documents:
1. Copy of my Aadhaar card for identity verification.
2. Copy of my bank passbook showing account details.
3. Account statement highlighting relevant transactions.
4. Complaint acknowledgment or any related correspondence.
5. Any additional documents requested by the investigating authorities.
Commitment to Cooperate
I assure you of my full cooperation in the investigation process. I am willing to provide any further
documentation, appear before the investigating officer, or assist in any other manner required to
resolve this matter.
Conclusion
I am a victim of unfortunate circumstances and have no involvement in the alleged fraud. The
imposition of the lien amount is causing undue financial and emotional hardship. I trust the
authorities will act promptly to address this issue and restore my financial rights.
Thank you for your time and understanding. I look forward to a favorable resolution.
