If you have not signed as Surety for loan taken by your colleague, then you are not liable to pay the balance loan. However consult a local advocate for further guidance.
The applicant used my address as permanent address. hdfc person asked me you name contact and address in permanent address so we taken you as equivalent to guarantor. you also forged our bank.

1. You can file a Police FIR, requesting investigation and charge-sheet, for offences like cheating, intimidation, fraud against the person & the Bank Loan dept., supported with all relevant supporting documents.
2. IF the Police does not take action, THEN you can file private criminal case u/s 156(3) Cr.P.C., in the local Magistrates court, seeking directions to the Police to investigate and file charge sheet. The Bank will back off after this action, because did not physically verify the address of their client while giving the personal loan.
