The Anti-Corruption Commission has questioned two businessmen, who it says have deposited a large amount of funds in bank accounts maintained by ‘VIPs’.
A spokesperson for the graft watchdog said Niranjan Chandra Saha and Mohammad Shahjahan appeared before the investigators on Sunday (May 6).
“They have been summoned to get details,” said Pranab Kumar Bhattacharya, public relations official of the ACC, told Bangla Tribune.
On Apr 25, ACC Director Syed Iqbal issued the summons.
ACC official Bhattacharya then said that the businessman took Tk 40 million in loans from the Farmers’ Bank through forged documents and in collusion with bank officials.
The fund was later transferred into bank accounts maintained by ‘very important persons of the state’, he said adding there were allegations of money laundering against the two businessmen.
