ACC submits charge sheet against 7 officials of Oriental Bank today

The Anti-corruption Commission (ACC) is set to submit a charge-sheet to the court today (Sunday) against seven officials including a deputy managing director (DMD)  of former Oriental Bank over misappropriation of Tk 10.9 million from the bank, officials say.
ACC deputy director Md Shamsul Alam will submit the charge sheet to the court 10 months after the approval given by the Commission.
"We got the submission approval from the Commission and will submit it Sunday," an ACC official said.
On July 29 last, the ACC approved the charge sheet against seven officials including former DMD Imamul Haque of the Oriental Bank, now ICB Islami Bank Limited. The other accused are former senior vice presidents Shah Muhammd Harun and Abul Kasem Mahmud Ullah (both suspended), former assistant vice president M Fazlur Rahman, former executive officer Tariqul Alam and the then executive vice presidents Mahmud Hossain and Kamrul Islam.
ACC deputy director Akhter Hamid Bhuiyan filed the case with the city's Motijheel Police Station earlier in 2006. Later, ACC deputy directors Nur Hossain Khan and Zahirul Huda investigated the case.
According to the first information report, all the accused in collusion with each other swindled about Tk 10.9 million by disbursing loans to a fake business firm, Alam Traders.
