Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) on Wednesday quizzed five ex-officials of Bangladesh Development Bank Ltd (BDBL) over alleged disbursement of Tk 500 million in loan to vague companies without mortgages.
The five who faced the anti-graft watchdog's quizzing were - the bank's former deputy managing directors (DMD) Nazmul Bari and Khalilur Rahman Chowdhury, general manager ASM Ziaul Haque, adviser Khondaker Mahmudul Hasan and deputy general manager (DGM) Solaiman Ali.
The individuals were interrogated by ACC assistant director Gulshan Anwar Prodhan at the Commission's headquarters in the city's Segunbagicha from 10:30am to 3:30 pm, said ACC public relations officer Pranab Kumar Bhattacharjee.
A summon notice was issued to ten BDBL officials on October 7 to appear before the ACC on October 17 and 19.
ACC sources said the accused disbursed over Tk 500 million to disqualified individuals and vague companies without mortgages or with fake mortgages.
The national anti-graft authority has already collected loan related documents of four companies - MM Vegitable, Dhaka Trading House, Tatka Agro Industries Ltd and AHZ Agro Industries Ltd.
