The court said the practice of hiring recovery agents who are musclemen need to be discouraged and bank should resort only to procedure recognised by law to recover dues from borrowers.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In a democratic country having a well-established, independent judiciary and having various laws, if musclemen are engaged to recover dues to the bank, it will create lawlessness,&#8221; the court said. In a country governed by rule of law, recovery of loans by banks and other financial institutions should be done through due process of law, it said.<\/p>\n<p>The court further said taking resort to &#8220;strong-arm practice is unlawful, unethical and opposed to public policy and against protection of public interest.&#8221; Justice Suresh Kumar directed the Registry to forward a copy of the judgment to the Governor of Reserve Bank of India for further action to ensure that the mode of recovery as permitted in the instant case is not resorted in future by banks and other financial institutions.<\/p>\n<p>( Source &#8211; PTI )<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Kerala High Court today held that the practice of banks and financial institutions authorising musclemen to recover loans from borrowers &#8220;is illegal, unethical and against protection of public interest.&#8221; Considering an appeal filed by a detective agency in Kozhikode complaining non-payment of commission by a public sector bank which engaged it to recover loan [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":38299,"featured_media":40449,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1],"tags":[31987,36284,36283,735,117,80],"class_list":["post-42202","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-top-law-news","tag-featured","tag-hiring-musclemen-to-recover-loans-unethica","tag-hiring-musclemen-to-recover-loans-unethical-kerala-hc","tag-kerala-high-court","tag-law","tag-legal-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Hiring musclemen to recover loans unethical: Kerala HC - Legal News India - Supreme Court &amp; High Court Updates<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The Kerala High Court today held that the practice of banks and financial institutions authorising musclemen to recover loans from borrowers &quot;is illegal, - Get the latest legal news from the Supreme Court, High Courts, and government.
