The Resistance Banker
In the occupied Netherlands during World War II, banker Walraven van Hall (Barry Atsma) is asked to use his financial contacts to help the Dutch resistance. He doesn’t have to think about it for long. With his brother Gijs van Hall (Jacob Derwig), he comes up with a risky plan to take out huge loans and use the money to finance the resistance.
When this proves not enough, the brothers set about committing the biggest banking fraud in Dutch history, taking tens of millions of guilders out of the Dutch Central Bank – right under the noses of the Nazis.
But the bigger the operation gets, the more people it involves. And every day brings a bigger risk of someone making that one mistake that could put an end to the whole business – and the lives of the resistance bankers.

Patel, had to distance himself from the controversy to save his government's face. It was a significant political casualty caused not by policy failure, but by personal conduct.
As investigations began, the police uncovered a complex network of events and individuals that led to the heinous crime. The probe revealed that Mallige had been receiving threatening calls and was being stalked by a former MLA, G. Ramesh, who had a history of violence and was known to have ties with the underworld.
In the aftermath of the scandal, several cases were filed against the accused, and some of them were convicted and sentenced to prison terms. The scandal also led to a major overhaul of the Karnataka police, with efforts being made to improve accountability and transparency.
