Lawyers representing the bank had stated thus when a court took up a case which cites that the bank had defrauded millions of rupees from its customers.

Appearing on behalf of the aggrieved party, Upul Jayasuriya P.C. said, "Transactions had taken place at the Sampath Bank even after 6pm. When suspicious transactions occur after regulated banking hours, top officials are notified of it. Therefore, the bank cannot wash its hands off this massive fraud."
