The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) on Tuesday approved a charge sheet against two people, including a Bank Asia official, over misappropriating Tk 0.5 million from a client's account.
The accused are officer of Bank Asia principal branch Mosharraf Hossain and owner of Laxmipur-based Messrs ZH Chowdhury Traders Jakir Hossain Chowdhury.
The two persons, in collusion with each other, embezzled the money from the account of Motijheel Model High School and College on June 15, 2015.
According to the case statement, without taking permission from the client, Mr Mosharraf transferred Tk 0.5 million to the account of Mr Chowdhury's organisation in the same bank via electronic voucher.
Mr Chowdhury withdrew the money using two cash cheques on June 16 and 17 of 2015.
However, on March 12, 2017, after almost two years, a sum of money was deposited to the account of Messrs ZH Chowdhury Traders.
Taking notice, the bank authority debited Tk 0.5 million to the account of the school via a transfer.
