“The false case submitted to Ebl Tarnish’s image,” says MD Ali Reza

In response to a case submitted by a client, Ali Reza Iftekhar, general manager and CEO of East Bank Limited, said it is “a false case submitted to the intention of preventing the bank.”

Murtaza Ali, the client, filed the file at the Court of the Additional Metropolitan Magistrate, Wednesday, Wednesday, accusing 46 people, including the MD and the EBL president, of the TK11 Crore delapidation from him by false.

The court has guided the Department of Criminal Investigation (CID) to investigate the issue.

During a press briefing at the bank’s headquarters in the Capital today (February 27), EBL MD IFTEKHAR said: “In response to the client’s complaint, our bank made two internal audits, and the central bank also performed one. None of the audits found any basis for the client’s complaint. “

He said: “The client (Murtaza) requested a Loan of TK4.5 Crore against his fixed TK5 Crore deposit, which was approved and paid in his account.

“The client has now filed a file in court. If the court investigates and finds the irregularities within the bank, we will reimburse the customer’s money.”

IFTEKHAR said: “The client personally signed all the loan documents and withdrew the loan’s money using a CEC signed by him. However, eight years later, he wrongly filed a file and the bank’s management committee, despite the fact that he had no connection with the 2017 incident.”

A written statement from the bank, presented at Briefing, said that the incident began in 2017. Murtaza Ali, a depositary of the EBL, took a loan against his warehouse in July 2017. The bank approved the loan based on his request, and the letter of approval of the loan was sent to the client.

At different times during the loan period, Murtaza received notifications from the East Bank Branch through its registered Email and mobile SMS regarding the payment of monthly rates. He never contacted the bank in response to these notifications, he said.

“As the loan rates became irregular, the banking authorities received the client’s fixed deposit on August 19, 2020 and issued a certificate of management, which was sent to the registered address of the client by registered post and accepted with the confirmation of the first.

“On May 28, 2019, Murtaza Ali sent a letter to the EBL Chandgaon branch in which he acknowledged that he took the loan from EBL against his fixed warehouse,” he said.

“After receiving the letter on May 28, 2019, the branch manager responded to the client’s registered E -mail on June 3, 2019 and again on June 9, 2019. Subsequently, on June 10, 2019, the head of the EBL Human Resources Department also responded to the Customer separated by E -Email.

“Despite the fact that he was fully conscious of the loan, Murtaza Ali later denied him, claiming that the loan was approved and illegally withdrawn by the bank’s branch officers with the intention of delapidation,” the statement said.

“He (the client) also claimed that, in addition to the loan withdrawal by the bank officials, other illegal transactions were made from his EBL savings account without his knowledge. The bank’s employees would have granted the loan without his consent,” the statement added.
