The Anti-Corruption Commission on Thursday filed a case against six Sonali Bank officials and one entrepreneur over their alleged link with swindling of around Tk 1 crore from the bank’s Gulshan branch through fake documents. The bank officials embezzled the money through some fake land deeds as mortgage against Fahim Attire Limited from 2008 to 2011, an ACC official told New Age.
The official said that the involved people deposited Tk 1.3 crore out of a total Tk 2.3 crore after the commission began investigation.
The commission deputy assistant director M Wahiduzzaman filed the case with Gulshan police against former Gulshan branch manager M Akteruzzman, former principal officer Santosh Chandra Debnath, executive officer Abul Hasem, senior officer AHM Khairuzzaman, assistant officer M Sahidul Islam, and assistant general manager of principal office Gopal Chandra Das.
The commission also sued the owner of Fahim Attire Limited Masudur Rahman Mazed, the commission official said.
According to the first information report, the bank officials created a fake inspection report to withdraw the money from the bank.
