IRCB sues former DG's son, IBBL officials

The court of Metropolitan Magistrate Maqsudur Rahman has directed the Bakalia Police Station Officer-in-Charge (OC) to take necessary measure after investigation into the matter.

IRCB collected money for the victims of the devastating cyclone of 1991. The relief committee deposited the money in different banks here and entrusted the then IRCB DG with the responsibility of taking care of its accounts.

Following death of the DG in early 1992 the concerned bank branches were informed about it and the deposited money was withdrawn from all branches except Chaktai branch of IBBL.

Later, it was learnt that the bank officials in collusion with the son of IRCB's former DG misappropritated the money.

Plaintiff Mohammad Reza, Estate and Administrative Officer of Al Jameya, appealed for measures to realise the embezzled money along with compensation and exemplary punishment to persons involved in it.
