Following this, Krishnan said that he would repay the money. Police then received 154 ATM cards from him and handed over Rs 1 lakh to customers. As he did not repay the remaining ₹2,28,036 the police arrested Krishnan today and produced him before an Investor Welfare Court judge and lodged him in the Coimbatore Central Jail.
