Two other accused are Evaly’s former Chairman Shamima Nasrin and Manager (Administration) Md Hassan.
Defense lawyer Abdul Warez said complainant Ahad received two cheques of Tk 15 lakh and Tk 10 lakh signed by Evaly CEO Russel. The cheques were presented to the Kalampur Branch of Dutch Bangla Bank Limited in Dhamrai Upazila for encashment. But the bank authorities returned the cheques saying the bank account was closed.
Legal notice was served to pay the money within 30 days but they did not respond.
