Nassau County Police arrested Rashni Bissesar, 25, of Queens on Thursday, Nov. 14 around 9:45 p.m.

Police say Bissesar worked as a home health aid and wrote out unauthorized checks from the employer’s personal bank account payable to herself between Dec. 2018 and June 2019.

Bissesar wrote 56 checks totaling more than $43,000, according to police.

The 71-year-old female victim allegedly confronted Bissesar, who officers say returned some of the stolen funds but refused to return the additional money. This prompted the victim to report the incident to police for investigation, officers say.

Bissesar was charged with third-degree grand larceny, second-degree forgery and second-degree criminal possession of a forged instrument. She is scheduled to be arraigned on Friday, Nov. 15 at First District Court in Hempstead.
