DHAKA, July 22, 2018 (BSS) – The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) today

Bank officials in a graft case.
The charge-sheet will be submitted before court against managing director

its assistant general manager M Sarwar Hossain, deputy general manager (DGM)

The national anti-graft agency filed a case against them with Tejgaon
