It may be remembered that the court so far set 12 dates to frame the issues of the case. On October 2, 2012, Sonali Bank filed the case against the defendants after their company, the Dandy Dyeing Limited failed to pay off the principal loan with interest, accumulated over 12 years to Tk 45.49 crore.
The company had borrowed Tk 12.16 crore from the bank’s principal branch in the capital on October 16, 2001, says the case statement.
